INGREDIENTS

Makes 8 burgers

  • 2 cans black beans, or 1 black and 1 kidney, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste or ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed mixed with 5 tablespoons water; let stand 10 minutes
  • 1–2 tablespoons oil for cooking

METHOD

Make it

  1. 1

    Mash beans in a large bowl, leaving some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Add oats, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, tomato paste, soy sauce, mustard, spices and flax mixture.

  3. 3

    Mix thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Let rest about 10 minutes so oats absorb moisture.

  5. 5

    Adjust texture with breadcrumbs if too wet or a little water if too dry.

  6. 6

    Form into 8 patties.

  7. 7

    Refrigerate 20–30 minutes if time allows.

  8. 8

    Cook in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat 5–6 minutes per side, or bake at 400°F about 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
