Black Bean Corn Burgers

I was always afraid to try a black bean burger but once I did I was hooked thanks to my girlfriend. These burgers have an awesome crust and go great with chipotle mayonnaise. In this recipe I'll show you how to make the patties.

4 Servings

Prep: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ready In: 30 minutes

1 Tbsp oilive oil

1 small onion diced

3 cloves garlic minced

1/2 red or green red bell pepper diced

1 cup whole corn drained

1 15 oz black beans drained

1/2 cup bread crumbs

4 tsps chili powder

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp salt

1/2 cup flour or as needed

1 Tbsp olive oil or as needed

Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a skillet over medium heat and stir onion, corn, garlic and bell pepper until onions are translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. 

Mash only half the black beans in a large bowl and add in the rest of black beans whole to give the burger more texture. Stir in the vegetable mixture, bread crumbs, chili powder, salt, pepper, cumin, onion powder and garlic powder into the bean mixture.

 Divide mixture into 4 patties and coat both sides of each patty very lightly with flour to form a nice crust.

Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook patties until browned 5 to 8 minutes on each side.

Serve once patties are done and have a nice golden brown crust. You can serve on whole wheat buns with your favorite toppings or eat just the patty.
