Ingredients

Onion Bean Burgers with homemade BBQ Sauce (Vegan & Gluten Free)

  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, skinned & chopped
  • 1 can of black eye beans, drained
  • 50g gluten-free oats
  • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • 7g ground seeds (I used ground chia seeds)
  • 1 tbsp oregano
  • 1 tsp of yeast-free stock (I used Kallo)
  • 1/2 cup of buckwheat flour

BBQ Sauce

  • 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp of smoked paprika powder
  • 1/2 tsp of dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp of dried basil
  • 225g of tomato sauce
  • 2 tbsp of tamari
  • Pinch of chilli flakes

How to make Onion Bean Burgers with homemade BBQ Sauce (Vegan & Gluten Free)

1. Pre-heat your oven to 1800 degrees, gas mark 4 and line a baking tray with grease proof paper.

2. Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a frying pan.

3. Peel and finely chop the onion and add into the pan. Use a wooden spoon to prevent the onion sticking.

4. Once the onions have softened & are golden in colour, add in the tomatoes for 2 minutes then turn off the heat and allow the veggies to cool slightly.

5. Using a food processor, mash/whizz up the beans and place into a large mixing bowl. Add in the cooked onion, tomato, oats, tomato puree, ground seeds, oregano and stock. Mix with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together.

6. With clean hands, form the mixture into burgers and lightly pat some buckwheat flour onto them, as this helps the cooking process.

7. Once you have a tray full of delicious burgers, place the tray into the middle of the oven. Cook for 10 minutes, then, take the tray out of the oven and flip the burgers over and place back into the oven for a further 10 minutes.

8. After 20 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and serve immediately along with the delicious homemade BBQ Sauce!

9. To make sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor for a few minutes until super smooth. Taste and add more spice if you feel it needs more seasoning.

  • Rich in protein
  • Good source of dietary fibre

With their high protein content, pulses such as black eye beans, kidney beans, adzuki beans, chickpeas and lentils are a great addition to a meat-free diet, which is why they are a favourite ingredient for many vegetarian and vegan dishes. Packed with fibre, they can also help promote good digestion, and are a good source of vitamins and minerals, such as iron, zinc and magnesium.
