Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beans

    Rinse and drain the black beans. In a large mixing bowl, mash them lightly with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    Add the oats, chopped red onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  3. 3

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and firm.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    If desired, toast the whole grain burger buns in a toaster or on a skillet until golden.

  2. 6

    Add the Toppings

    Spread 1 tablespoon of vegan mayo on each bun. On the bottom half, layer the lettuce leaves, followed by the cooked burger patty, sliced tomato, and sliced avocado.

  3. 7

    Complete the Burger

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
