Ingredients

  • 15 oz garbanzo beans
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • Juice from 1 small lemon
  • 1/3 cup oat flour
  • 1/3 cup bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 3 tbsp reserved bean juice
  • 1 tsp ground sea salt
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 hamburger buns

TOPPINGS

  • Chopped kalamata olives
  • Mashed avocado
  • Spinach
  • tomatoes

Instructions

  • Drain (reserve the liquid, it’s your egg replacer) and rinse the garbanzo beans and place in a food processor. Add the garlic, lemon juice, oat flour, bread crumbs, tahini, bean juice, and salt and process for approximately 30 seconds or until you get a thick and sticky mixture. Divide into 2 and form the mixture into large patties.
  • Refrigerate for an hour to allow them to set.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium iron skillet on medium-high heat. When the oil is hot add the burgers and cover. Sear for approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until they’re golden brown and heated through to the center.
  • Double the recipe to make four large burgers.
