2 hrsThese veggie burgers get their hearty texture from rolled oats cooked with tamari until thick and binding.
Sauteed onions, carrots, celery, and peppers fold into the mixture with fresh basil and oregano for flavor that doesn’t need meat.
Bake them instead of frying for patties that hold together on the grill or in a bun without falling apart.
Pro Tips
- Chill the mixture at least 2 hours or overnight so it firms up enough to shape cleanly
- Use an ice cream scoop to portion uniform patties that cook evenly
- Flatten each portion gently, don’t compress too much or they’ll be dense instead of tender
- Bake on a lightly oiled sheet so the bottoms crisp up without sticking
