How to Prepare #5under5: Sticky Peanut Orange Rice Burgers [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Preheat oven to 400°F (we used a toaster oven to bake the patties and toast the buns. Oven times may vary if using a conventional oven, use your discretion).
Cook rice according to package instructions.
Pierce the sweet potato several times with a fork, wrap in a moist paper towel, and microwave for 3 minutes. If not fully cooked, turn it over and microwave for 2 minutes more.
Make the flax egg by whisking the flax with the water. Let it set.
Add de-skinned sweet potatoes to the bowl and mash. Add the rice and combine well, using your hands. Add the flax egg.
Fold in the seasonings (peanut butter, soy sauce, orange marmalade, and Sriracha) in any order. Combine well.
Grease the baking pan.
Form four large patties. Go for thick and plump as opposed to flat and thin.
Put patties in oven and set a timer for 20 minutes. At the 20 minute mark, flip patties over and cook on the other side for 15 minutes. Take the patties out of the oven.
If you'd like, brush the tops and the insides of the hamburger buns lightly with oil and put in the oven for 5 minutes.
Take the buns out of the oven and assemble the burger.
Mix sliced scallions with 1 1/2-2 tablespoons soy sauce and crushed peanuts. Repeat with the cabbage.
Top burgers with scallions and/or soy slaw. Serve immediately.

Notes

This recipe is for 4 large patties. You can easily make 6 medium-sized patties or make them even smaller for sliders. Cooking time may vary if you make smaller patties, so check on them frequently while they bake. Peanut butter can be substituted for unsalted almond butter. Taste the patty mix before baking and adjust to taste. Add more orange for a sweeter patty, more peanut butter for a nuttier flavor, or more Sriracha/Asian hot sauce if you prefer it spicy.
