    Delicious, firm and full of flavor! This will remind you of the real burger without the meat!

    Who doesn’t love a good burger? Stacking your favorite veggies, toppings, and condiments over a succulent burger patty, and closing it off in a yummy bun. Taking that first dreamy bite with all the good stuff spilling out of the sides while you try to get a taste of all your favs inside! Now imagine all that, but with a vegan burger that saves you calories and guilt! Still dreaming about that first bite into the burger, aren’t you? LOL!


    Unique Traits of the Vegan Black Bean Burger

    For beginners, obviously, this is a special burger because it’s a healthier take than your run-of-the-mill beef burgers. We all love to indulge in savory foods without feeling guilty afterward or hitting the gym extra hard! This burger is a great way to spoil yourself and fulfill your burger craving without derailing a healthy regiment or splurging on calories.

    Furthermore, there are endless ways to get creative with the Vegan Black Bean Burger. From switching up ingredients to swapping flavors, there’s so much personal creativity that can go into this recipe.

    Variations for Vegan Black Bean Burger

    My recipe calls for oat flour with regular flour and chia seeds for added texture and alternatives to using only regular flour. You can choose to use quinoa instead of chia seeds. You can even swap out flour altogether and use mashed sweet potatoes to help hold the burger together. It’s important to ensure you have proper binders (what holds the patty together) and the right amounts of it. Another great option is breadcrumbs (you can use gluten free ones). You can create a combination of all these ingredients as well! Totally up to you!

    For a kick of flavor, you can choose to roast the peppers and let them dry out before throwing them into the mix. You can add spices of your choice if you’re not a fan of the spices I use in my recipe. I have a great seven spices recipe that would work great in this burger mix! Want some heat? Add red chili flakes or cayenne pepper! You can even throw in some jalapeños s into the mix before you blend. There are plenty of ways to create a spicy vegan black bean burger!

    You can cook them on a griddle like I do. Also, you can choose to bake them in the oven or even grill them on your gas or charcoal barbecue outside! However you feel like eating them, prepare them and really enjoy them.


    Great Sides and Toppings with the Vegan Black Bean Burger

    • Sweet Potato Fries
    • Coleslaw
    • Mixed greens with garlic and lemon dressing
    • Roasted veggies
    • Guacamole
    • Sautéed mushrooms, onions, and peppers

    Frequently asked questions

    How can I ensure the burgers don’t fall apart?

    Use enough binders, or ingredients that help keep them together including: oat flour, regular flour, eggs or egg replacer, corn starch or starchy ingredients, or breadcrumbs. It’s important that they are firm. Also, you can pack them well in metal rings and be sure to cook them on medium heat.

    Why do black bean burgers get mushy?

    This is because it’s made of already cooked ingredients. A good trick is to be sure you dry your beans well and avoid excess moisture in any or all of your ingredients.

    How do I know when a black bean burger is done?

    It should have a darker, crisp exterior and the inside is no longer cold. It should altogether have a firmer touch when you press it.

      I’ve made these twice in the past two weeks and were great in both tines! They also freeze very well so they can be made ahead for a quick week day dinner
