Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked black beans
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 6 tablespoons water
- 0.5 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon coriander
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the flaxseed meal and water. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
In a large mixing bowl, add the cooked black beans and mash them using a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some beans slightly intact for texture.
Add the almond flour, thickened flaxseed mixture, chopped red onion, chopped red bell pepper, minced garlic, ground cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans.
Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. The mixture should hold together when formed into patties.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and crispy.
Remove the patties from the skillet and serve hot with your choice of paleo-friendly sauces or toppings such as lettuce wraps, avocado slices, or salsa.
