Ingredients

BURGERS:

  • 1 Tbsp. ground flax
  • 3 Tbsp. water
  • 2 Tbsp. olive or avocado oil, divided
  • 3/4 cup diced sweet white onion
  • 2 large cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 1 15-oz. can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped cashews or almonds
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • a few dashes hot sauce
  • salt + pepper
  • ~1/2 cup oat flour (GF if necessary)

ASSEMBLY:

  • 5-6 toasted buns
  • Easy Vegan Chipotle Crema
  • guacamole – your favorite recipe
  • lettuce
  • red onion, sliced thin
  • your favorite [vegan] potato chips
  • sliced tomato

Instructions

  1. BURGERS: Add flax and 3 Tbsp. water to a small bowl. Mix and set aside to gel, about 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, add onion to a small saucepan over medium heat with 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and sauté until translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add garlic, and sauté for another 30 seconds – 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl.
  3. Add chickpeas to a food processor, and pulse until broken into small pieces. It should look like rice/riced cauliflower. Add it the same large bowl.
  4. Add cashews to the food processor, and pulse until broken into small pieces. Add it to the large bowl same bowl.
  5. Add cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, oregano, hot sauce, a healthy dose of salt and pepper, and the flax-water mixture, and mix to combine. Add oat flour and mix until combined. The mixture will be slightly tacky, but easily shaped into a patty with wet hands. If it’s too wet, add more oat flour 1 Tbsp. at a time.
  6. Shape into 5-6 patties, wetting your hands slightly between forming each patty. I like making my patties more flat and round so that they fill up the entire bun. You can also make them more short and stout – up to you!
  7. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp. oil, and cook each patty on one side until browned. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side.
  8. ASSEMBLE: Toast your buns with a bit of oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Spread a healthy dose of chipotle crema on the bottom bun. Add your patty. Top with guac, lettuce, red onion, tomato, and lots of crunchy potato chips. Devour!
