Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 425 g (1 can, rinsed and drained) black beans
- 60 g (3/4 cup) rolled oats
- 1 medium, finely diced red bell pepper
- 1 small, finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 15 g (2 tablespoons, chopped) cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 4 pieces whole wheat burger buns
- optional toppings (lettuce, tomato, avocado, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or potato masher to mash the black beans until mostly smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture.
Add the rolled oats, diced red bell pepper, chopped onion, minced garlic, and cilantro to the mashed beans. Mix well to combine.
Sprinkle in the ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Using your hands, form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. Place each patty on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly brush the tops of the patties with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then carefully flip the patties and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let the patties cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the black bean veggie burgers on whole wheat buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, or avocado.
