Trin for trin

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Ca. 5 min.

2. 2

   Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

   Ca. 1 min.

3. 3

   Add the yellow onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.

   Ca. 7 min.

4. 4

   Stir in the garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

   Ca. 1 min.

5. 5

   In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until chunky but not completely smooth.

   Ca. 3 min.

   Kokkens note: Leave some whole beans for texture.

6. 6

   Add the sautéed vegetable mixture, oats, salt, and black pepper to the mashed black beans. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.

   Ca. 2 min.

7. 7

   Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, about 1-inch thick.

   Ca. 3 min.

   Kokkens note: If the mixture is too wet, add a tablespoon more oats. If too dry, add a splash of water.

8. 8

   Place the patties on the prepared baking sheet.

9. 9

   Bake for 10-12 minutes per side, flipping carefully halfway through, until the burgers are firm and lightly browned.

   Ca. 24 min.

   Kokkens note: Alternatively, pan-fry the patties in the remaining olive oil over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and heated through.

    Serve the black bean burgers hot on hamburger buns with vegan mayonnaise, lettuce leaves, and tomato slices.
