Can I make these walnut black bean patties ahead of time?

Yes, you can form the patties and store them uncooked in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Cook them just before serving for the best texture.

What makes the avocado puree special for these burgers?

Blending the avocado until smooth creates a creamy, rich spread that adds a luxurious texture and fresh flavor, complementing the savory patties and other toppings.

Are there any substitutions for oat flour to keep these burgers gluten-free?

While oat flour helps bind the patties, you could try a small amount of gluten-free breadcrumbs or a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp water) as an alternative binder, though results may vary.

How should I store leftover Walnut Black Bean Burgers?

Store cooked patties separately from the buns and fresh toppings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat patties gently in a pan or oven.

How to Prepare Walnut Black Bean Burger [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Place the rice and water in a saucepan, add salt and bring to a boil, lower the heat and cook al dente (it takes about 15 minutes with this rice).
Rinse the black beans and mash them.
Chop the walnuts.
Mash 1/2 avocado.
Mix the mashed black beans, cooked rice, chopped walnuts, oat flour, half avocado, dijon mustard, cumin seeds, and onion powder in a bowl, add salt.
Form five patties and press firmly so they stick together.
Place them in a preheated, oiled frying pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side.
Cook the onion slices in an oiled frying pan until golden.
Place the second half of the avocado in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Warm up the burger buns in the oven. Spread the mayo on the bun, add the lettuce, then your patty, and top with the onions, avocado puree, and finish with the cherry tomatoes.
