Equipment

Ingredients

  • 15 oz Black Beans , canned, drained
  • 15 oz Chickpeas , canned, drained
  • 1 small Onion , chopped
  • 1 cup Cooked Brown Rice
  • ¼ cup Beet Puree , optional
  • 3 tablespoons All-purpose Flour (Sub Gluten-free)
  • Juice of 1 Lemon
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Chili Powder
  • ½ to ¾ cup Cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper optional seasoning
Cups - Metric

Instructions

  • Rinse and drain the black beans and chickpeas. Place half of each along with the chopped onion in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. Set aside.
  • Place the rest of the beans in a medium-size bowl and using a potato masher (or a fork) mash the beans. Next add the bean/onion mixture to the bowl, along with the brown rice, flour, beet puree (if using), lemon juice, chili powder, and salt. Stir until well-combined. Add 1/2 cup of the cornmeal and stir again. Let the ingredients sit for a bit to allow the cornmeal to absorb any moisture. If the mixture still seems too wet, add more cornmeal until you achieve the desired consistency.
  • Shape the bean dough into patties. Depending on their size, you should be able to create 6 to 8 patties.
  • Heat an oven (convection or regular) to 250°F (121°C). While the oven is warming, get out a medium-sized skillet, add the oil, and place it on a burner set to medium-high heat. Once the oil is warm, add the patties. I like to sprinkle a little salt and pepper on the uncooked side of the patty. Let the patties cook for about 5 minutes until brown on the bottom and then flip. Cook the other side for another 5 minutes. Place the patties in an oven-safe pan and bake in the warmed oven for about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • While the patties are baking, prepare a side dish or two such as potato wedges and a salad. Enjoy!
