  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced or 1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill
  • 1 15-ounce can white beans, drained and rinsed

  4. Portion burger mixture evenly (about 1/3-1/2 cup each), shaping into a loose patty and press into prepared cups.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until deep golden brown and set at the centers.
