- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp paprika

Instructions
Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly.
In a food processor, combine chickpeas, gluten-free rolled oats, chopped red onion, minced garlic, parsley, cumin powder, paprika, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper.
Pulse the mixture until well-combined but still slightly coarse. Scrape down the sides as necessary.
Add the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pulse a few more times to incorporate.
Shape the chickpea mixture into four equal-sized patties.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the patties in the skillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.
While cooking the patties, slice the tomato and avocado, and prepare the lettuce leaves.
Toast the gluten-free burger buns if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing a cooked chickpea patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with sliced tomato, lettuce leaves, and sliced avocado.
Place the top half of the bun on each patty and serve immediately.
