- 60 grams rolled oats
- 1 medium carrot, finely grated
- 0.5 medium red onion, finely diced
- 1 clove garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Instructions
In a food processor, combine the drained chickpeas and rolled oats. Pulse until the mixture is slightly chunky but holds together when pressed.

Using your hands, divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a burger patty, about 1.5 cm thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with a bit of additional olive oil if desired.
Cook the veggie patties for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside.
Serve the veggie burgers on buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, avocado, and sauce. Enjoy!
