This recipe can make from 10-15 black bean patties depending on how big you make them. These are great to store in the freezer and pop out when you want a quick and easy lunch! Eat them plain or on a whole wheat bun!
- 2 cans 15 oz cans black beans drained
- 1 red onion chopped
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1/2 cup grated carrots
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp warm water
- 2 tbsp sriracha
- 2 tsp red pepper
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- whole wheat buns
-
Preheat over to 375 F.
-
Drain black beans and add to medium sized bowl. Mash using fork.
-
Add onion, carrots, green bell pepper, and garlic. Mix until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl whisk together cornstarch, a few tbsp of warm water, sriracha, chili powder, red pepper, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Once well combined add this mixture to black bean mix.
-
Stir in flour with bean mixture, 1/4 cup at a time. Continue to stir until thick batter forms.
-
Spoon small amounts of mixture onto nonstick pan forming 1/2 in patties. I like to make them about the size of my palm.
-
Bake for 20 minutes flipping halfway through.
-
Serve on a toasted whole wheat bun with your favorite toppings! (I recommend some sliced avocado!)
The toppings you use is what makes this burger even more amazing! I like sliced avocado, iceberg lettuce, fresh sliced tomatoes, and spicy mustard.
I hope you all enjoy these yummy black bean burgers! Let me know what you think!
