I didn't actually get to try these burgers myself, but I think the idea was good in theory. I think they need a lot of spicing up. I usually don't make anything bland at all. Next time I try these out, I'll have to see if I can jazz them up a bit. Feel free to try them yourself and send me any suggestions. They are also vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free!
1 can chickpeas
olive oil cooking spray
1/4 Tsp baking powder
1 sweet potato
2 Tbsp dill
1/2 small red onion, minced
1 Tsp salt
1/4 Tsp fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 Tsp garlic powder
Recipe Adapted from Self
Grate the sweet potato on a cheese grater.
Beat the chickpeas in a mixer until smooth. Add in onion and mix thoroughly. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Finally, mix with the sweet potato.
Form mixture into "burgers". Spray a baking sheet with the nonstick spray and place "burgers" onto it. Spray the top of them with the spray as well. Cover tightly with foil and bake in a 375 degree oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil and spray them again. Cook an additional 20-25 minutes until the bottoms of the "burgers" turn golden brown. Flip them and spray again. Bake an additional 10-15 minutes.
I did make the cucumber mixture that was recommended with this recipe but I don't think it did anything for them. I'm trying to think of a good topping for them if you wanted to serve them on a bun as actual burgers. Maybe some french dressing or even ranch? I'm open to suggestions on this one!
