1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp oil
1 cup great northern beans
1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin
1/3 cup quick cooking oats
1/4 tsp sage
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
Salt to taste
Pepper to tast

In a large skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil for about 5 minutes or until soft, then set aside. In a large bowl, mash beans with a fork. Be sure to mash most of the beans until a paste forms, leaving some whole beans are okay. Add pumpkin, oats and seasonings to beans. Add onions and garlic to mixture. Mix until well combined. Allow mixture to rest in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, the mixture can be left overnight or up to 3 days. Divide bean mixture into 4 equal balls. With hands, shape mixture into patties about 3 inches around and 1/2 inch thick. To cook patties, bake in 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes, turning once. Or, place 1 tsp oil in large skillet over medium heat. Place patties into pan and cook for about 5 minutes. Turn patties and cook an additional 5 minutes, or until patties are browned on both sides.

  I love that these stay together so well! I used chickpeas instead of white beans and substituted half the oats for wheatgerm. Yummy! - 10/29/08
