How to Prepare BBQ Chickpea Burgers [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make the BBQ Sauce:
  1. Combine all ingredients together in a food processor or blender.

To Make the BBQ Patties:

  1. In a food processor, pulse the oats through the onion until finely chopped. Add the garbanzo beans and process for another 30-60 seconds. Add in the remaining ingredients and blend together until finely chopped and you are able to make a patty with the mixture.
  2. Scoop out some of the mixture and form into a patty between your hands. Place patties on a sheet of parchment paper and place in freezer for 15 minutes.
  3. Pre-heat grill. Remove patties from the freezer and rub with a little bit of olive oil on either side and place on grill for 5-6 minutes, flip and grill on the other side for another 5 minutes. You will know they are done when they have those beautiful grill marks.
  4. Put them on a bun with some avocado, tomato, lettuce and some BBQ sauce.
