Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 can cannellini beans, 15.5 oz
  • 1 cup grated cooked beets. I buy the pre-cooked packaged beets-it's about 4-5 cooked beets
  • 1/2 white onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp BBQ sauce
  • Olive oil

Burger Sauce

  • 1/3 cup mayo of choice, you can use vegan mayo
  • 3 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp chopped sweet pickles + 1 tsp of the juice
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tsp white vinegar

Directions

  1. Heat a small pan with a drizzle of olive oil, and saute your onions for 5-6 minutes on medium heat until soft.
  2. Drain and rinse the white beans and add them to a large bowl. Mash them with a fork, you can leave some pieces chunky.
  3. Add in the grated beets, onions, garlic, nutritional yeast, spices and BBQ sauce. Mix well until evenly incorporated.
  4. Add in the oat flour and the breadcrumbs. Combine well, I like to mix with my hands to make sure it all gets evenly combined.
  5. Refrigerate the mixture for 20 minutes. If it's too soft after refrigerating, add an extra 1-2 tbsp more oat flour if needed.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  7. Form 6 palm-sized patties with the mixture and layer them on a parchment lined sheet pan. Drizzle each one with olive oil.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes, flip each one then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, you can grill them on a greased pan for about 3-4 minutes per side on medium heat.
  9. To make the sauce, combine the ingredients together in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Serve over your burgers with your favorite toppings.
  10. Keep refrigerated for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
