Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    1 small onion, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    2 medium carrots, shredded (about 1 cup)
    1 Anaheim or jalapeno pepper, cored and finely chopped
    1 (14.5-ounce can) black beans, drained and rinsed (about 1 1/2 cups)
    1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
    1/4 cup chopped parsley
    1 tablespoon chili powder
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon hot sauce

Tips

No parsley? Swap in 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach.

Double the recipe and freeze half for later. Stack the uncooked burgers between sheets of parchment and then place in a sealed plastic bag.

Thaw in the refrigerator and cook as desired.


Directions

Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add half the olive oil. Add the onions and garlic cook for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they have softened. Add the carrots, cook another 2 minutes, and then add the pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl stir together the beans, oats, parsley, spices, hot sauce and remaining oil.

Remove the vegetables from heat and fold into the bean mixture.
Either mash using a potato masher or transfer to a food processor and pulse a few times. The texture should be half pureed, half chunky. (Pureeing them entirely will yield a gummy burger.)

Refrigerate mixture for 30 minutes or overnight.

Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Remove the burger mixture from the fridge and divide into four portions. Pat each burger into a 4-inch flat circle, using a sheet of parchment or plastic wrap if needed.

STOVETOP DIRECTIONS: Coat the skillet with cooking spray, and place the burgers in the pan, careful to leave space between each one.
Cook for four minutes per side, carefully flipping using a thin spatula.

OVEN DIRECTIONS:
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes on a greased baking sheet, flipping halfway through the cooking process. Spritz the tops with cooking spray for a crispier exterior.

Serving Size: Makes 4 burgers

    I buy a ready made bean burger, but it is high in sodium. It is nice to see a recipe where I can cut the sodium out by using canned beans made without salt. I look forward to trying this with all sorts of beans and spices. Thank you, - 8/1/13

    I like to make my own black beans to give a little firmer texture and to cut down on the sodium a bit. - 10/18/15

    Non-vegan husband rated it a 3 and said ok to make again. 22 yr old vegan son rated it a 5. I liked it too. I made like the recipe, but without the peppers and hot sauce. I also didn't have any parsley. I am going to try doubling it and freezing. I got 5 burgers. - 7/3/14

    I tired this last night, very good. Better than buying frozen veggie bugers. I would add more hotness to this, but will make these again for sure and freeze them ahead of time. - 5/5/14

    It's great making your own and I topped it off with avocado slices and jalapeno peppers are my favorite kick with pepper jack cheese, for my kick. You can used flavored olive oil to eliminate some of the seasonings. ' normally buy Bocas however, this is so much better and the flavor is awesome. - 10/21/19

    I made these last evening and did not care for them. I am not vegan so maybe that is the difference. Followed directions exactly and my burgers fell apart and they were very dry. I added lettuce, tomatoe and onion to my sandwich. My husband did like them. Just not to my taste. - 9/15/15
