Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz canned black beans
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup cooked quinoa
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp chili powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 4 tomato slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Drain and rinse the black beans. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until a chunky paste forms.
Add diced red bell pepper, chopped onion, minced garlic, cooked quinoa, and breadcrumbs to the mashed beans.
Crack the egg into the mixture, then add cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. If the mixture seems too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape them into patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the patties, two at a time, for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are crispy and brown.
Transfer the cooked patties to a baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to ensure they are cooked through.
Toast your buns either in a toaster or in the oven for a few minutes until slightly crispy.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf, a black bean patty, and a tomato slice on each bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free black bean burger!
