Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze these burgers?
Absolutely! I often make a big batch and freeze extras. Just make sure to separate them with parchment paper so they don’t stick together.
What can I use instead of oats?
You could use breadcrumbs or almond flour if you want a gluten-free option, just adjust the quantity to get the right consistency.

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Start by preparing your flax flax egg. Mix the ground flaxseed with water in a small bowl and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it thickens.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, oats, nut vegan butter, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- 3
Once your flax flax egg is ready, add it to the mixture and mash everything together with a fork or your hands until well combined. You want a mixture that's cohesive but still has some texture.
- 4
Form the mixture into patties—about 4 should do. If the mixture feels too wet, add a touch more oats.
- 5
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Serve your veggie burgers on whole grain buns with your favorite toppings. I love adding avocado, fresh greens, and a slice of tomato!
