Vegan Black Bean Burgers With Oats Food

VEGAN BLACK BEAN BURGERS WITH OATS

Steps:

• Process black beans in a food processor or blender with just enough of the reserved can liquid to get the processor going. Place into a large bowl.
• Blend oats in the food processor until they become oat flour; add to the large bowl. Blend sunflower seeds until finely ground; add to the bowl. Blend mushrooms, bell peppers, and onion in batches in a food processor and add to oat mixture. Mix in parsley, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and cumin thoroughly using your hands or a rubber spatula, adding more processed oats if needed to hold shape.
• Roll mixture into 15 tight balls, flatten, and cup the sides to ensure the patties do not have cracks. Place on wax or parchment paper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), or over medium heat. Place patties carefully into the hot oil using your hands or a spatula, working in batches. Cook until browned and crispy, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove and place onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil, about 2 minutes. Repeat with more oil until all burgers are cooked.

BLACK BEAN BURGERS

Steps:

• In food processor put first 6 ingredients and process until blended. I left some carrots chunky.
• Add oats and stir to mix well.
• Let sit for 20 minutes to soften oats.
• Preheat oven to 400degrees.
• Roll into burger patties and put on baking sheet- I used a cast iron griddle to help with non-stick and to keep it fat free. You can spray baking sheet w/ oil prior to placing burgers on it.
• Bake 8 minutes on each side. The recipe says you can also "fry" burgers in non-stick fry pan.
• Serve w/ whole wheat buns w/ toppings of choice. Enjoy this recipe made 7 good sized burgers.
• You can also freeze these after cooking and reheat. I am planning on taking these camping.

SPICY BLACK BEAN BURGERS WITH OATS

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat until hot. Add the oil and when it is warm, add the onion. Stir-fry for 5 minutes.
• Add the jalapeno peppers and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Turn off heat and stir in the chili powder, ground cumin and oregano. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, rinse and drain (several times) the black beans and then put them into a large mixing bowl.
• Roughly mash the black beans with a potato masher or a fork.
• Add the uncooked oats and stir to combine.
• Add the cooked onions and stir to combine.
• Add the eggs,cilantro (more or less depending on how much you like cilantro), salt and pepper. You can add a bit more pepper if desired.
• Mix well and form into patties. They are easier to fry if you make a smaller size pattie and use a smaller hamburger bun.
• Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and cook 4-5 minutes on the first side, or until well browned. Carefully flip over the burgers and cook about 3 minutes on the second side. Like most vegetarian burgers, they can crumble, so extra care needs to be taken when frying them.
• Serve with your favorite garnishes.

VEGAN BLACK BEAN BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Mash black beans in a bowl; add onion, garlic, carrots, and green bell pepper. Mix.
• Whisk cornstarch, water, chile-garlic sauce, chili powder, cumin, seafood seasoning, salt, and black pepper together in a separate small bowl. Stir cornstarch mixture into black bean mixture.
• Mix whole-wheat bread into bean mixture. Stir flour, 1/4 cup at a time, into bean mixture until a sticky batter forms.
• Spoon 'burger-sized' mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, about a 3/4-inch thickness per mound. Shape into burgers.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked in the center and crisp in the outside, about 10 minutes on each side.

BLACK BEAN VEGGIE BURGER

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the leek, mushrooms, thyme, tofu and kale for about 5 mins. Add the mustard, tamari and half of the black beans and give it a good stir. Transfer the mixture to a blender and pulse a few times - don't over-blend, it needs to be quite chunky in texture. Scoop into a bowl and add the rest of the black beans, the oat bran, rice and chopped nuts, then mix well.
• Divide the mixture into 4-6 evenly sized portions and shape into patties using your hands. Tip the gram flour onto a plate, if using, then roll the patties in the flour to coat.
• To make the burger dressing, mix all ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Fry the patties for 4-5 mins on each side until crisp on the outside.
• Slide the patties into the buns with the tomato, onion, lettuce and a dollop of burger dressing.
