The inside of these veggie burgers are soft and fluffy with a crunchy and golden brown exterior, not to mention packed with nutrition and flavor! I could not even fathom drowning these burgers of deliciousness in a bun and other added ingredients. I enjoyed mine plain, and another with a mixture of coconut cream and herbs.

I made these without any oil. I just placed them on big parchment-covered baking sheets at 375 degrees F convection. Same amount of time as the recipe. Came out fabulous and crispy!
