Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Black Bean Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    Add breadcrumbs, shredded pepperjack cheese, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and egg to the mashed beans. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form each into a patty shape.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the brioche buns. On the bottom half of each bun, place a black bean patty, followed by a generous dollop of chipotle mayo, a spoonful of spicy salsa, and a scoop of guacamole. Top with the other half of the bun.
