Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 ½ teaspoons grapeseed oil, or as needed
1 medium shallot, chopped
½ medium green pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 sprigs fresh basil, chopped
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoons ground coriander
1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup bread crumbs

Steps:

Mash black beans in a bowl with a potato masher, leaving a few beans whole for texture; set aside.
Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add shallot, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables have softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add to black beans and season with basil, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Fold beaten eggs into the bean mixture. Sprinkle in bread crumbs, adding a little at a time and fold in. Be careful not to overmix the bean mixture.
Reheat the skillet that you cooked the onion mixture in. Scoop out 1 cup bean mixture and shape into a ball. Set the ball into the hot skillet and gently flatten to form a burger.
Cook until firm and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining bean mixture. You might need to add more oil.

THE BEST BLACK BEAN BURGERS I'VE EVER HAD

Categories Bean Sandwich Summer Dinner Lunch Bake Vegetarian

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 cans black beans, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper (1/2 of a pepper)
1 cup finely chopped yellow onion (1/2 of a large onion)
3 cloves garlic cloves, minced (about 1 Tablespoon)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 cup bread crumbs or oat flour
1/2 cup feta cheese
2 pieces large eggs
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup, mayo, or BBQ sauce
1 pinch salt + pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Spread beans evenly onto a lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until slightly dried out.
Meanwhile, sauté olive oil, chopped pepper, onion, and garlic over medium heat until peppers and onions are soft, about 5-6 minutes. Gently blot some of the moisture out. Place in a large bowl or in a food processor with the remaining ingredients (cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, bread crumbs, cheese, eggs, worcestershire, ketchup, salt, and pepper). Stir or pulse everything together, then add the black beans. Mash with a fork or pulse the mixture, leaving some larger chunks of beans.
Form into patties- about 1/3 cup of mixture in each.
To bake: Place patties on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake at 375°F (191°C) for 10 minutes on each side, 20 minutes total. To grill: Place patties on greased aluminum foil and grill 8 minutes on each side. Heat temperature is personal preference as all grills differ. Generally, black bean burgers should grill on medium-high heat about 350°F (177°C) - 400°F (204°C).
Serve with your favorite toppings. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freezing Instructions: Cooked or uncooked black bean burgers freeze wonderfully for up to 3 months. Stack between parchment paper in a freezer container or zipped-top bag. Thaw in the refrigerator and reheat to your liking or, if uncooked, cook according to instructions. If desired, you can skip thawing and reheat/cook from frozen for an extra couple minutes.

Tips:

Use high-quality black beans. Look for beans that are plump, firm, and free of blemishes.
Rinse the black beans thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
Soak the black beans overnight before cooking. This will help to soften them and make them more digestible.
Be careful not to overcook the black beans. Overcooked black beans will be mushy and bland.
Use a food processor to puree the black beans. This will help to create a smooth and consistent burger mixture.
Add your favorite seasonings and spices to the black bean mixture. This could include things like chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Form the black bean mixture into patties. You can use a burger press or simply shape them with your hands.
Cook the black bean burgers in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the burgers are cooked through.
Serve the black bean burgers on buns with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado.

Conclusion:

Black bean burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are packed with protein, fiber, and vitamins, and they are also low in fat and calories. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious black bean burgers that the whole family will love.
