Juicy Beet Burgers 🍔 Vegan & Gluten-Free

Turn kidney beans and beet into hearty smoky burger patties that won't fall apart. They are vegan, gluten-free, easy to make and anything but bland. Start by grinding three tablespoons of chia seeds into a fine powder. Transfer them to a small cup, add 60 milliliters or a quarter cup of water and stir well. Set the mixture aside to thicken. Roughly chop one medium onion, about 110 grams. Then chop three garlic cloves, add 60 grams or half a cup of sunflower seeds to a food processor. You can also use pumpkin seeds. Add 60 grams, two thirds of a cup of oats. Season with two teaspoons each of onion powder and smoked paprika, half a teaspoon of cumin and three quarters of a teaspoon of sea salt or adjust to taste. Process everything until the sunflower seeds and oats form a coarse, evenly ground mixture. Add the chopped onion and garlic. Add 270 grams of kidney beans, one and a half tablespoons of soy sauce and 30 grams of tomato paste. Use tamari if needed. Peel one medium raw beet, about 100 grams and cut it in half. Finely grate the first half and add it to the food processor. Pulse the mixture several times, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spoon until the ingredients are combined but still have some texture. Grate and add the remaining beet, then pour in the thickened chia mixture. Pulse again until everything is evenly combined. Heat a little oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Scoop out portions of the beet mixture and shape them into six evenly sized patties. Press them gently so they have an even thickness and cook at the same rate. Place the patties in the hot pan, leaving a little space between them. Fry until the underside is firm and nicely browned, then carefully flip each patty. Cook the second side until browned and heated through. Work in batches if necessary, adding a little more oil between batches. To assemble the burgers, slice the cucumber and tomato and prepare your favorite burger sauce. Cut your favorite burger buns, I'm using my homemade gluten-free burger buns which I will link in this video, and spread the sauce over each side. Add fresh lettuce, followed by one of the warm beet patties. Top with tomato, cucumber, sliced onion or any other fresh vegetables you enjoy. Add another spoonful of sauce, place the top bun over everything and your homemade beet burger is ready. Serve immediately and enjoy the smoky, savory patty with the crunchy vegetables and creamy dressing. So here you can see the red beet burgers and they smell so yummy and I think they turned out really pretty. I like that they are not too pink because it looks more natural this way.
