Crispy Black bean burgers are so much healthier, cheaper and tastier homemade and can be grilled or cooked on the stovetop, in the oven, or in the air fryer!

Ingredients
- 2 (15 oz cans) black beans drained well
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup bell pepper finely chopped
- 1/2 cup onion yellow, finely chopped
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- 3/4 cup instant oats or breadcrumbs, almond flour, or flour of choice, see note, pulsed in blender
- 2 large egg
- 1/2 cup cheese of choice, shredded
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (or ketchup)
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup cilantro optional, lightly packed, fresh, finely chopped
- 2-4 tablespoons mayonnaise optional, spicy
Instructions
- Heat olive in a small pan over medium-high heat. Saute the onions and bell peppers for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Add the garlic and saute for another minute. Remove from heat and set aside to cool for at least 2-4 minutes.
- Drain and rinse black beans. Pat with a paper towel to remove excess water. Pour into a large mixing bowl and gently mash with a fork just until chunky. Add the breadcrumbs, eggs, cheese, sriracha, spices, and cilantro. Mix to combine.
- Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes. This step will help the breadcrumbs or other grain absorb the excess moisture so they don’t fall apart.
- Once Burgers have set in the fridge, divide the mixture into 8 even patties and cook via the desired cooking method. Once cooked, assemble burgers with your favorite toppings and condiments. We served it with spicy mayo and air fryer fries.
- Stovetop: Sautee 3-4 minutes per side in 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until the outside is crispy and set.
- To Bake: Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes or until crispy and cooked through.
- To Grill: Place burgers on greased aluminum foil and grill 7-9 minutes per side or until cooked through and charred.
- To Air fry: Preheat air fryer to 375F. Air fryer for 15 minutes or until crispy and cooked through.

Notes
- * Pulse instant or rolled oats in the food processor or blender for 5-10 seconds or until it it starts to resemble a flour texture. This recipe will also work with any flour or breadcrumbs.
