Very easy to make. I got this one from Mark Bittman.
Ingredients:
2 cups black beans
1 medium onion, quartered
1/2 cup rolled oats, preferably not instant
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon salt (or to taste)
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 egg
liquid (from cooked beans or stock, you probably won't need this)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Combine the beans, onion, oats, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and egg in a food processor. Pulse until chunky, but not pureed. The mixture should be moist, but not sticky. Add a little liquid if needed.
3. Grease a baking sheet.
4. Use your hands, a spoon, or an ice-cream scoop to make patties. Drop these onto the baking sheet.
5. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the bottoms are nicely colored and lift easily from the baking sheet. Flip and bake for 15 more.
6. You can also broil these burgers, or cook them in a hot cast iron skillet, or on the grill. They cook a lot faster using these other methods, so just be sure to keep an eye on them.
