Easy-to-make Black Bean Party Burgers that create a party on your plate! These burgers are perfect for summertime gatherings.
[wprm-recipe-jump]
First off, I hope that everyone had a great Memorial day weekend and that you had some great food and a lot of fun. The weather here in Southern California was sunny, breezy and just about perfect for grilling. I’m not trying to brag or anything, I just want to set the scene for you: clear skies, a slight breeze, mid-70s outside, chilled drinks and black bean party burgers. All in all, I can’t complain!
So, let me share with you these delightful black bean party burgers. I’ve made black bean burgers a couple of times previously and I feel that when I winged it this past weekend, they turned out to be some of the best that I’ve made at home. They baked up perfectly, were definitely grillable (although I had veggie kabobs taking up my grill space), and full of great flavors.

Black Bean Party Burgers
Easy-to-make Black Bean Party Burgers that create a party on your plate!
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups Cooked Black Beans
- 1 Cup Kale, Chopped
- 1 Cup White Onion, Diced
- 1 Cup Red Bell Pepper, Chopped
- 2 Tbsp . Fresh Lime Juice
- 2 Tbsp . Olive Oil
- 1 1/2 Tbsp . Liquid Aminos
- 1 tsp . Ground Cumin
- 1 tsp . Chili Powder
- 3/4 tsp . Smoked Paprika
- 1/2 tsp . Garlic Powder
- 1/4 tsp . Cayenne Pepper
- 2/3 Cup Sliced Black Olives
- 1/2 Cup Rolled Oats
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place all ingredients, with the exception of the black olives, oats, salt & pepper, into a food processor. Pulse mixture until it is chunky, and not too finely pureed.
- Fold the olives and rolled oats into the mixture until evenly mixed throughout. Season with salt & pepper to taste, and let the burger mix sit for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 360°F. Prep a baking sheet by coating it with a very thin layer of coconut oil or non-stick spray.
- Next, take roughly 1/2-3/4 Cup of the black bean mixture and gently place it on the baking sheet. Spread it out using your fingers or the back of a spoon until it is 1/2" thick and about 4" in diameter.
- Repeat the burger forming step until you have run out of mix; you will have 5-6 burger patties depending on how large you make them.
- Bake them on one side for 15 min., flip over carefully and bake for an additional 15 minutes. If you would like vegan cheese on top, melt it on the patty for the last 5 minutes of baking.
- If you want a bit of grilling flavor, bake it only 10 minutes on each side, then grill it for 2-3 minutes on each side at medium heat (flipping carefully).

These are delicious! I've made them at least 5 times and they are always very liquidy and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong? I puree the ingredients to roughly the same consistency as in the picture, but it ends up the consistency of a really good fresh salsa. any thoughts?

It's been quite some time since I've made these so let me give them a go in the next week and I'll try to troubleshoot this for you! In the meantime, looking at this, it's a pretty wet recipe. Try using salt to taste instead of liquid aminos, to help lower the liquid content!
