Ingredients

5 Tbsp BBF Organic Chia Seeds

1 Cup water

1 Tbsp BBF Organic Naturally Refined Coconut Oil

1 onion, diced

1 clove garlic, minced

1 Tbsp cumin

1 1/2 Tbsp chili powder

1 18 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 tsp oregano

1/4 Cup cilantro, chopped

2 Tbsp sesame oil

1/2 Cup almonds, chopped

1 Cup sunflower seeds, chopped

3 Cups breadcrumbs

1/2 Cup soy sauce

2 Cups carrots, grated

2 Cups oats

Dash flour for dredging

2 Tbsp BBF Organic Naturally Refined Coconut Oil

Directions

1. In a small bowl, mix chia seeds and water in a small bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes, until seeds have absorbed the water and form a gooey texture, similar to a raw egg yolk.

2. In a large skillet, sauté onions and garlic in coconut oil. Place in a large mixing bowl and let cool. Add chia mixture and remaining ingredients and mix well. Shape into 12 patties and dredge in flour.

3. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown burgers in batches until golden on each side and heated through.

4. Store leftover burgers in the freezer for a quick and easy meal later.

Tip: If you want to skip all the chopping, throw ingredients together in a food processor and pulse until chopped.
