Black Bean Burger

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. 2
   Combine the beans, onion, oats, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and egg in a food processor. Pulse until chunky, but not pureed. The mixture should be moist, but not sticky. Add a little liquid if needed.
3. 3
   Grease a baking sheet.
4. 4
   Use your hands, a spoon, or an ice-cream scoop to make patties. Drop these onto the baking sheet.
5. 5
   Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the bottoms are nicely colored and lift easily from the baking sheet. Flip and bake for 15 more.
6. 6
   You can also broil these burgers, or cook them in a hot cast iron skillet, or on the grill. They cook a lot faster using these other methods, so just be sure to keep an eye on them.
