Peel and dice the potatoes and carrots into small chunks. Steam or boil them until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Let cool slightly.
Grate the zucchini using a box grater. Squeeze out the excess moisture by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel or paper towel and wringing it out over the sink.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes and carrots, grated zucchini, and chopped spinach. Mix until well combined.
Add chickpea flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper to the vegetable mixture. Combine thoroughly. If the mixture feels too wet, add breadcrumbs a tablespoon at a time until the mixture holds together when pressed.
Using your hands, divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty about ½ inch thick.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, place 4 patties in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining patties, adding the remaining olive oil as needed.
Serve warm on their own, in a bun as a burger, or with a dipping sauce of your choice. Enjoy!
