Ingredients
Black Bean Burgers:
- 2 cans black beans, mashed into a paste
- 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup chopped onions
- 2 tablespoons ketchup or BBQ sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
- 1/8 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil (to grease pan)
kaiser rolls (optional)
Garlicky Avocado Aioli: (optional but recommended)
- 2 avocados, mashed
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Mix together the mashed black beans, bread crumbs, onions, ketchup, chili powder, cumin, garlic, salt, pepper, and eggs in a medium bowl. Form the mixture into 6 to 8 large patties.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat (about 350 degrees) and add some EVOO. Cook the burgers until heated through (approximately 5 minutes per side).
- Garlicky Avocado Aioli: While burgers are cooking, mash avocado (remove pit and skin), add Greek yogurt, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a medium bowl until well combined and no chunks remain.
- Serve on a toasted bun with Garlicky Avocado Aioli (or any of your favorite toppings), or skip the bun and enjoy on a salad.
Notes
For a vegan option: For a vegan option, replace eggs with “chia eggs” or 1/3 cup mashed sweet potato. Replace the Garlicky Avocado Aioli with a vegan option. We have not personally tried this method.
