Ingredients

Sriracha Aioli

  • 1/3 cup vegan mayo or regular mayo
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Black Bean Burgers

  • 15 ounces black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 green bell pepper medium
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 2/3 cup gluten free breadcrumbs
  • hamburger buns
  • Toppings: lettuce, tomato, jalapenos , pickles, cheese, avocado etc

Instructions

Sriracha Aioli

  • In a small bowl, add all of the ingredients and Whisk together until everything is smooth and combined. Place in the fridge until ready to serve.

Black Bean Burger

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the black beans in a food processor and pulse for about 10 - 15 seconds to break down the black beans. Be careful not to make them too mushy. Then remove the black beans from the food processor and place them in a large bowl.
  • Next, add the bell pepper, onion and garlic to the food processor and process until finely minced. Transfer the veggie mixture to a fine mesh strainer and use the back of a spoon to press out the excess moisture. This step is extremely important! If the mixture is too wet, the burger won't hold together well.
  • Add the strained veggie mixture to the bowl with the black beans. Add in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Add in a beaten egg and mix. Then stir in the bread crumbs.
  • Divide the mixture into 5 even sized patties, forming and pressing them flat with your hands. Then place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes on each side.
  • Remove from the oven and serve the burgers on a bun and top with a spoonful of the Sriracha Aioli, lettuce, tomato, jalapenos, pickles, cheese, avocado, or any desired toppings.
