Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375F.

Step 2

Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until they all come together. You should still be able to see some quinoa grains but should be easy to handle.

Step 3

Use gloves (otherwise hands may be a little pink afterwards) to shape into 4-6 burger patties, depending on how big you want them.

Step 4

Place onto a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes and flipping at the 15 minute mark.

Step 5

Serve on gluten free buns (I used New Bread rolls) with pink tahini, onion, arugula, avocado and mustard or additions of your choice. Enjoy!
