The secret? A rich blend of black beans, mushrooms, and flavorful spices creates a burger with amazing taste and a texture that looks and feels like the real thing. If you want a wholesome vegan burger packed with flavor, this recipe is for you.
What You'll Need
1 large onion
1½ cups cooked black beans
500 grams chopped mushrooms
3 garlic cloves
½ cup chickpea flour
Chopped celery
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Himalayan salt
Ground pepper, to taste
Cumin, to taste
Sweet paprika, to taste
Turmeric, to taste
Shawarma seasoning, to taste
Optional: Crushed chili
How to Make It
Prepare the Vegetables
In a skillet or pot, sauté the chopped onion until softened.
Add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool.
Prepare the Burger Mixture
Place the black beans, garlic, chickpea flour, celery, olive oil, salt, and spices into a food processor.
Pulse until combined.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the cooked onions and mushrooms.
Mix everything well.
Shape and Bake
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or prepare an electric baking tray.
Form burger patties in your preferred size. Wet hands or a cookie cutter can help create evenly shaped patties.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the burgers become firm and set.
Serving Ideas
These burgers are delicious in a variety of ways:
Classic burger style: Serve in a bun with lettuce, tomato, and sliced onions.
Fresh and light: Pair with a salad made with lettuce, cabbage, cherry tomatoes, tahini, and pickles.
Something different: Simmer a tomato sauce and place the patties inside to absorb extra flavor.
Healthy, satisfying, and packed with flavor, these homemade vegan black bean burgers prove you do not need processed ingredients to create a truly delicious burger.
