The Best Black Bean Burgers I've Ever Had

Amazing! Had the perfect amount of flavor! Will definitely be making these again.

Really the best!

Delicious!

Mine didn't turn out very good...I'm wondering if I cooked the beans for too long or didnt pulse them long enough....maybe I'll try with sweet potato

Great way to use up some extra black beans. The flavor was amazing! It took close to an hour to prep and get everything in the oven though. The middles were still a little soft and they fell apart easily. Not sure if we will make this one again.

Great flavor. If baking them, I would broil instead of middle rack at 375. Then watch, test, and flip to blacken/toast other side

For vegan burgers, make the following 3 changes: (1) leave out the Worcestershire sauce or replace with your favorite vegan condiment such as BBQ sauce, (2) leave out the cheese, and (3) replace the eggs with 1/3 cup mashed sweet potato.

Smokey and earthy. Used avocado, cilantro and lime as a topping to bring out some brightness.

Delicious and meaty and held their shape. Undeniably the best bean burgers I’ve made.

A little bit dry, bake the black beans for 10 mins instead of 15 mins upfront. Use oat flour.

easy recipe! I added 1/2 cup of corn. Made around 10 patties.

Fried mine in a pan with a bit of oil for about 4 mins per side. Delicious!

Delicious 😋 Trying to ease off red meat and this did the job! I used a little olive oil in a frying pan, wetted my hands and formed into patties fried in the pan. Added homemade mayo, smashed avacados, tomatoes, green onion a dab of siracha and sliced cheddar cheese. So good

Works for me. My first time eating a black bean burger. All you have to do is dress it up.

Perfect! Just the texture I was hoping for. Great for freezing too!

These black bean burgers were amazing! Even my husband liked them and he is super picky. This is definitely getting added to the dinner rotation!

LOVED IT!

Delicious! The recipe made very large patties. They were a bit crumbly but the flavor was fantastic. I topped the burger with mashed avocado, cheddar cheese, pickled red onions, and spinach.

Just as good as the frozen ones at the store. I'll be adding these to my rotation

Not bad considering I left out feta, paprika, red pepper and chili powder due to being out. Will look for a simpler recipe next time though

Picture is not very flattering, but these came out better than I expected. When I was forming into patties felt very sticky and mushy and I was very skeptical of them holding up. But they firmed up when I cooked them quite well. The mixture kept sticking to my hands as I was forming them, so I sprayed my hands with cooking spry, which seemed to help.

I was surprised by how well it held up! Would make again.

Been making this for a few years. No substitutions here. Love it every time. I make it up with a butterd ciabatta roll, with red onions, tomatoes, and homemade ranch dressing. The raw patties freeze and cook up perfectly

Actually so good as instructed! I did a half batch and cut all things in half ingredient wise and it turned out really good.

Amazing, didn't taste like beans, were a little dry so I added some beans straight from the can

I added adobo and some chicken flour to make it more of my flavors. Overall it was good i would do it again

Tasted great. Patty’s held together very well. Baked the black beans in my toaster oven. Then used my blender to mash them. Careful not to blend it to fine. Would recommend adding mayo or guacamole.

Way more process than lead to believe. Mash, whip, blend, mix, dry, then cook?

Tasty recipe but they take a long time to cook! I fried them because the mix was quite sloppy: they turned out ok but took a good 10 minutes each side to firm up.

So I want to love this recipe. I really do. The directions are perfect for making an black bean patty that has a good consistency. But the seasoning was not what I was looking for, exactly. My daughter summed it up well: this is like having refried beans on a bun. I think I will make this again, but leave out the cumin and chili powder - perhaps sub in some steak spices instead to give it a bit more of a 'burger' flavor. Next time I would also make the patties a bit larger: I followed the author's recommendation of 1/3 cup per patty (made 12), would move to 1/2 cup (make 8). So if you are looking for a recipe that makes black bean burgers that taste like - well, like Mexican black beans - this is the recipe for you!

Tried it. The flavors were great but the burgers turned out extremely dry. Would love to make again and find a fix…

Been a go to of mine for years!

I rounded every spice up to a full teaspoon (2 tsp cumin, 1 tsp garlic, etc.) and I did not add any ketchup, mustard, or mayo to the burger mixture before cooking-- only for serving. Came out delicious!

This came out really well! After reading some other reviews, I doubled up on the spice, ketchup and panko, cooked the onions down to get more flavour out of them and added cheese and barbecue sauce in the bun. This is a winning combo. However, also added mushroom, soy sauce and balsamic to the burger mix too (dropped the feta). Was definitely not dry! Didn't use a food processor though, that I'm sure would just create a boring texture, just crushed it a little in a bowl with a potato masher instead. Oven baked at 200oC fan, not grilled.

The burgers turned out great, unfortunately just not great enough to make again. I just feel like it’s more work than they’re worth 😅

Love this in a variety of ways... With fried egg on top of patty or in a tortilla as a wrap with avocado and a touch of creamy goddess dressing or ranch. Actually haven't tried as a burger with bun yet.

It is a bean burger. It was pretty tasty. I will make it again. I ate mine with Bbq sauce , sliced cheddar cheese on a ciabatta bun. I would add lettuce and tomato for a garnish next time. The patties are pretty wet before they start cooking but do firm up.

To dry and green pepper overwhelming

Double-up on the W sauce.

Subbed the Worcestershire for balsamic vinegar and used whole wheat flour. Haven't had a better veggie burger!

Literally the best black bean burger I've ever had 🤌

Air fried it at 360 for about 5mins on each side.

These were awesome! Super flavorful and a great texture. My husband ate 4!

Delicious! I cut the recipe in half and got 6 pattie’s using a ¼ cup scoop. These had delicious flavor. I followed the instructions exactly but I used more cheese than called for(prob about a heaping ½ cup). I added a ¼ cup of corn that I microwaved to thaw before adding. I chose to bake these. Will make again!

I used the baking option and these cooked really well. I didn't have any issues with mushiness, they came out a great texture. Put on a whole wheat bun with spinach and condiments. Reheated nicely for leftovers. Definitely will make again.

Really good. My 4 teens enjoyed them. Some people said they were mushy, but mine turned out perfect. The recipe stresses drying the beans and sautéeditems, so perhaps others didn't do that. I heated my beans couple of hours before I made the burgers and let them continue to dry out in the stove but with it turned off, so maybe that helped a bit. Sweet potato fries made the perfect side.

Delicious! Very good texture. We grilled it

Great recipe but a bit mushy and hard to work with as it was super wet. Might have done it wrong but I did follow the recipe.

Really good with 1 can black beans and 1 can chickpeas. Always use 1/3 cup sweet potato instead of egg. Oat flour is a good replacement for bread crumbs.

I realized I was out of eggs when I got to that step, but substituted about 2-eggs worth of mayo. Lacking the eggs made the texture less firm but the taste is great!

Freeze well. Cooked at 400F in the air fryer and it worked great!

I didn't have feta so I used 50g of Schmand instead. It worked like a charm.

Great recipe and very flavorful! It was a little time consuming (took close to an hour total) but the full recipe makes 6 large-ish patties. We melted some habanero jack onto the patties and topped them with avocado, tomato, red onions, and arugula.

Very tasty and has a great texture.
