Prepare the flax egg by combining the ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
In a food processor, place the chickpeas, corn kernels, rolled oats, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and the prepared flax egg. Pulse until the mixture starts to come together but still has some texture. Avoid over-processing.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl. If it feels too wet, add an additional tablespoon of rolled oats and mix. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes to firm up.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty about ½ inch thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil if using, or cook without oil for an oil-free version.
Place the patties in the skillet (work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding) and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side, or until golden and firm.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, inside a bun as a veggie burger, or alongside a fresh salad.
