Vegan Cheeseburger Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Bean Mixture

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

2. 2

   Combine Ingredients

   Add the oats, chopped 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 Patties

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

4. 4

   Cook the Patties

   Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the burger patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they're golden brown and heated through.

5. 5

   Melt the Cheese

   During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of vegan cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to help it melt.

6. 6

   Assemble the Burgers

   Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on each bun, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and avocado. Add ketchup and mustard to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the vegan cheeseburgers warm and enjoy!
