Veggie Burger on a Wheat Bun Recipe

American · Main course · 35 min total

A hearty and flavorful veggie burger made with black beans, oats, and spices, served on a whole wheat bun with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

• 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 whole wheat burger buns
• Lettuce, tomato, onion, and condiments for serving

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth but with some chunks.
2. Add oats, onion, bell pepper, garlic, tomato paste, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and egg. Mix until well combined.
3. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4 inch thick.
4. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
5. Toast the buns if desired. Serve patties on buns with lettuce, tomato, onion, and condiments.

Tips

• For a vegan version, substitute the egg with 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water.
• Patties can be baked at 375°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, instead of pan-frying.
• Store uncooked patties in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
