Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Black Beans

    Rinse and drain the black beans thoroughly. In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth but with some chunks remaining for texture.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

  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 golden brown and heated through.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the whole grain burger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked burger patty, a slice of tomato, and sliced avocado.

  3. 7

    Finish Assembly

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