Burger Ingredients
Method
Burger Preparation
Prepare the Black Bean Patty
In a mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture. Add rolled oats, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.
Form Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form into patties. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to help them firm up.
Cook the Patties
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each patty for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Make the Aioli
In a blender, combine roasted red peppers, vegan mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Assemble the Burger
Toast the vegan pretzel buns. Spread a generous amount of roasted red pepper aioli on the bottom half of the bun. Add the black bean patty, topped with sliced avocado, lettuce leaves, and red onion. Finish with the top half of the bun.
