📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. In a small mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork until mostly smooth but with some texture remaining.

2. Add the rolled oats, grated carrot, chopped onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, smoked paprika, cumin powder, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix thoroughly to form a cohesive mixture.

3. Shape the mixture into a patty, ensuring it is pressed firmly together.

4. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the veggie patty to the skillet.

5. Cook the patty for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy on the outside.

6. While the patty cooks, toast the vegan burger bun lightly, if desired.

7. Assemble the burger by spreading vegan mayonnaise or your preferred condiment on the bun. Layer with lettuce, the cooked veggie patty, and a tomato slice.

8. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade vegan veggie burger!
