How to Make Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers
To make flavorful veggie burgers, it does take a little bit of prep work, but I promise it’s 100% worth it! Start by sautéing the onion and garlic in a skillet until the onions are translucent. Add the onion mixture and basil to a food processor or blender and pulse several times. If you haven’t already, broil your cubed sweet potato until soft. Add the beans, sweet potato chunks and oats to the processor and pulse another 5-6 times. Make sure you don’t over process – I prefer slightly chunky burgers. The beans should be broken up but there should still be some visible in the burgers. Transfer the veggie mixture into a large bowl and stir in the flaxseed egg, chili powder, cumin, Sriracha and salt. Form into five patties. If the mixture is too wet, you can add in extra oats. Cook the patties in a skillet for about 6-7 minutes or bake them for about 25 minutes. Serve on a bun with condiments of your choice!
