Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel and grate the beetroot using a box grater or food processor. Set aside.
In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautΓ©ing for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the grated beetroot to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes until it softens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked beetroot mixture, brown lentils, quinoa flour, chickpea flour, rolled oats, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and chopped parsley.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they form a cohesive mixture. If it's too wet, add a bit more quinoa flour until the mixture holds together.
Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties using your hands.
Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the tops with the remaining olive oil.
Bake the patties in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve the soy-free beetroot burgers on buns with your favorite toppings or enjoy them as a flavorful addition to a salad.
