Now that I’ve found the perfect combination for my black bean patties, I decided to share my recipe. I hope it comes out good for you like it did for me.

Ingredients:

• 1 can of black beans
• 2 tsp of minced garlic
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 of a yellow onion (diced)
• 1 cup of whole wheat flour
• 6 tbsp of salsa
• 1 tbsp of chili powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Set oven to 375 and spray an 8×8 pan with cooking spray. .
2. Puree black beans in a food processor (I used the Ninja Express Chop (about $20 give or take from Wally World). It takes only about 5 seconds. I usually do it twice just to make sure its the consistency I want so let’s say 10)
3. Spoon beans into a bowl, add salt/ pepper to taste, minced garlic, diced yellow onion, salsa, and chili powder and stir until well blended.
4. Add egg and then cup of whole wheat flour.
5. Form into patties (this recipe made 6 patties while a recipe I did before only made 4). It all depends on how big you want your patties.
6. Place patties into pan. You should be able to get 4 patties into the pan, but if you made them big then you won’t.
7. Place into oven and cook 10 minutes on each side.
8. Bon Appetit!
