Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • cups water
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 15-ounce cans black beans, rinsed and drained (or 4 cups cooked black beans)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 3 medium scallions green onions, trimmed and roughly chopped
  • 2/3 cup vegan mayonnaise such as Vegenaise, divided use
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup plus 6 tablespoons gluten-free garbanzo bean flour or all-purpose gluten-free flour  divided use
  • Grapeseed or vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle chili powder more or less depending on desired heat level
  • 6 lettuce leaves for serving

Instructions

  • Combine the quinoa, water, and ½ teaspoon salt in a small saucepan with a lid. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until all the water has been absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. (Alternatively, you can use cups already cooked quinoa.)
  • Place half of the black beans in a food processor with the ground cumin, green onions, 1/3 cup vegan mayonnaise, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Process until the mixture is smooth. Add the remaining beans and pulse a few times until you have a somewhat chunky puree. Transfer the bean mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the cooked quinoa and 6 tablespoons of flour. Stir to combine. Place the remaining ½ cup flour on a dinner plate. Portion the bean mixture into 6 equal sized patties.
  • Add just enough oil to coat the bottom of a large skillet. Heat over medium-high until it starts to shimmer. Place the patties into the flour and coat both sides. Add the patties carefully to the hot skillet. Do not over-crowd the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
  • Combine the remaining 1/3 cup vegan mayonnaise with the chipotle chili powder. Place the burgers on lettuce leaves and top each with a dollop of the chipotle mayonnaise.
