How To Make Curried Pumpkin and Chickpea Burgers [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Preheat the oven to 390°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel and grate the pumpkin. Transfer to a fine-mesh strainer and press out as much excess liquid as possible. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In a food processor fitted with an "S"-blade, blend the rinsed chickpeas, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic cloves, and all the spices until an even paste comes out.
- In a large bowl mix the grated pumpkin with the chickpea mixture, flax eggs, and brown rice flour. Stir well to combine. Add a bit more flour if the batter comes out too wet.
- Form the batter into 9 even-sized balls and flatten until about 3/4-inch thick patties.
- Bake for about 30-35 minutes and remove from the oven.

Hi Ella! I have been making this recipe quite a while now and loving it. İt is the perfect pumpkin burger recipe for me. I try not to cook veggies more than they need. Less processed and more flavoured with grated pumpkins. Thanks for posting it!
