Ingredients
227 g (½ lb) mushrooms, roughly chopped
1 can of 540 ml (19 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 large egg
250 ml (1 cup) Corn Flakes cereal, or ½ cup cornmeal
15 ml (1 tbsp) BBQ sauce
15 ml (1 tbsp) reduced-sodium soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce
7.5 ml (½ tbsp) minced garlic (or 1-2 cloves)
2.5 ml (½ tsp) smoked paprika
1.25 ml (¼ tsp) cumin
Pepper and salt
6 whole grain round buns (or hamburger buns)
Choice of toppings:
Tomato slices
Lettuce leaves
Condiments (ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, etc.)
Slices of cheddar cheese
Pickles
Onion
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a food processor, combine all the patty ingredients and mix well.
Use a portion scoop to form 6 patties. With slightly damp hands, shape the patties and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 35 minutes, turning 5-10 minutes before the end of cooking. Extend the cooking time if you make thicker patties.
Note: It's normal for the mixture to be too soft to shape into patties by hand. Use a 60 ml / 2 oz portion scoop (or an ice cream scoop) to make uniform patties. Then, they can be shaped with damp hands.
Notes
Can be kept for 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The patties can be frozen for 3 months in an airtight container.
