Notes

  • Recipe adapted from Chocolate Covered Katie
  • Nutrition information does not include the bun or the toppings. It’s only for the patty.
  • For baking instructions, place the patties on a greased baking dish and bake for 15 minutes at 400°F. Then flip and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Substitutes:
    • If you prefer not to use quinoa, you can try cooked brown rice instead
    • You can substitute other types of beans for the black beans
    • Instead of bread crumbs, you can use panko breadcrumbs or all-purpose flour or almond flour. It helps to bind the burger.
