Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Black Beans

    Drain and rinse the canned black beans under cold water. Place them in a mixing bowl and mash them with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add the rolled oats, chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well until all ingredients are well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    With clean hands, divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 5

    Cook Patties

    Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and heated through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Assemble Burger

    Place the cooked black bean patties on burger buns. Add your choice of toppings such as lettuce, tomato slices, avocado slices, cheese, and condiments like ketchup or mustard.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the black bean burgers warm with a side of your choice, such as sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.
