Gluten Free Black Bean Burgers

These Black Bean Burgers are so easy to make. They come together in less than 25 minutes  and are so delicious! Even meat-eaters will love these burgers!

I’ve been scouring the internet for a good veggie burger recipe, but almost all of them involve some sort of bread crumbs which doesn’t work for me since I’m gluten free.

So I decided to make my own little concoction using a similar style that I use to make my Salmon Burgers by using gluten free Panko to hold these beauties together.

I started out with a can of Black Beans (rinsed and drained).

Then I started mashing the beans away with a fork. I sort of half mashed them if that makes any sense. I like to have some of the beans whole in my burger for texture. But you can mash them up more if you like. 🙂

Next add in: (full printable recipe down below)

Shallots

Gluten Free Panko

Egg

Garlic

Chipotle Chili Powder

Cumin

Smoked Paprika

Sea Salt

Pepper

Mix away and form into patties!

Now it’s important to note that whatever size you make the patties will be the same size after they’re cooked. They don’t shrink when cooked like regular burgers.

So make em to fit the buns!

Btw, my favorite Gluten Free bun to use at the moment is Canyon Bakehouse. You can usually find these at Target in the bakery section, or in the freezer section of your local grocery store. The buns hold together really well and taste like a real bun (if you’ve ever had a gluten free bun crumble apart or taste like cardboard then you know what I mean).

When frying these burgers I like to use Avocado Oil.

Avocado oil has a smooth, buttery flavor, and a smoke point of up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. It also gives these burgers a really good flavor!

You guys are seriously going to love these Black Bean Burgers! They’re:
