Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mash the Beans

    In a mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or a potato masher until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.

  2. 2

    Mix in the Ingredients

    Add oats, finely chopped bell pepper, onion, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and the egg (or flax egg) to the mashed beans. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.

Cook the Patties

  1. 4

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. You can add a little oil if desired to prevent sticking.

  2. 5

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the whole wheat burger buns lightly if desired.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    On each bun bottom, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked veggie patty, tomato slices, avocado slices, and top with ketchup and mustard to taste.

  3. 8

    Finish the Burger

    Cover the burger with the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
