Beet and Bean Burger
These are the best vegan whole food plant based burgers!
Ingredients
- 2 Large Onions diced
- 2 Large Beets shredded
- 1 Bulb Garlic The whole bulb! Minced
- 3 Cups Mushrooms (any edible type will work) diced
- 2 15 oz Cans of black beans drained and rinsed
- 2 Cups Brown rice Precooked
- 2 Cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats Uncooked
- 2 Tubers Turmeric Root (pinky size)
- 4 Tbsp Flaxseed Ground
Dry Spice Mix
- 1 Tsp Dry Mustard
- 1 Tsp Coriander Powder
- 1 Tsp Cayenne Powder
- 2 Tbsp Smoked Paprika
- 2 Tsp Cumin Powder
- 2 Tbsp Onion Powder
- 2 Tbsp Garlic Powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375*.
- Combine all ingredients in a very large bowl or pot and mix them WELL.
- Form into patties that are roughly the same size. I absolutely love my patty press (see Notes below)
- Lay out on a baking pan and bake for 45 minutes.
- I sprinkled the tops with a LITTLE sea salt and pepper but this is optional.
- Pull them out and turn them over, and bake for another 20-25 minutes until they look browned on the outside.
Notes
*If you want them consistently sized, I would suggest measuring them out with a 1/2 or 3/4 measuring cup.
*Turmeric and beets can stain your hands, your counters, your equipment…it did not stain my patty press, and I used gloves on my hands.
*Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and you won’t have issues of sticking without the use of oil
*You can put parchment paper between the burgers and freeze for cooking later or you can cook them and freeze them for later use….either way, this recipe is great for batch cooking.
*You could also grill these….don’t ask me how long, use your judgement. This patty press is awesome!! I love it for its consistency. You just drop a liner in, drop your mixture in and another liner and press applying even pressure which helps the burgers hold together without the use of eggs or other binding agents. Repeat. You lift all the patties out at once and separate. They separate easily and hold together. This patty press is called Mr BBQ Multi Layer Burger Press and Container. It is currently listed for sale for $21.90, and it is worth every penny!!
