Description

Ingredients

• 2 cans of black beans, drained
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs (I used gluten free)
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
• 1 teaspoon onion powder (I am not a fan of fresh onions.. but if you are please feel free to use 1/8 cup finely grated white onion instead)
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1-3 tablespoons olive oil
• 6 hamburger rolls, warmed
• cut avocado
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Trader Joes Red Pepper Spread (if you dont have this substitute about 2 tablespoons roasted red peppers and a clove of garlic made into a paste in your food processor)

Directions

• Add one can of beans to the food processor with, egg, garlic, onion, cumin and chili powder.
• Pulse until combined (if you dont have a food processor combine ingredients in a large bowl and mash with a fork until combined).
• Add second can of beans and bread crumbs and stir until combined.
• Allow mixture to rest for 5-10 minutes
• Heat 1-2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large pan on medium to medium low.
• Divide burger mixture in half and then each half into 3rds
• Form each 3rd into patties and place into hot oil (dont crowd the pan)
• Fry each patty for 4-5 minutes per side, adding a teaspoon at a time of oil as needed.
• If the patties brown too quickly, reduce heat
• Set each aside on a paper towel when done.
• For Red Pepper Aioli
• Combine Red Pepper Spread and mayonnaise in a small bowl and stir.
• To assemble burgers:
• Place each burger on top of a warm bun
• Top with about 1 tablespoon Red Pepper Aioli and sliced avocado
• Enjoy.
