Black Bean Burger Recipe
I have an absolutely delicious Black Bean Burger Recipe for you that I know you will love! It’s yummy and dairy-free and gluten-free! I also like it because it does not contain nuts. Don’t get me wrong, I love veggie loafs that contain nuts but just not in burgers so much.
This burger recipe is so good and I think it’s because of the essential oils used in the recipe giving it extra flavor that you can’t get from spices.
Black beans are legumes like peas, lentils and peanuts. So they are not like the normal bean you think of. But black beans have so many health benefits! They keep your bones healthy, lower your blood pressure, prevent cancer and even can help manage diabetes. It’s nice to know the healthy side of food.
- Among other benefits, black beans may help strengthen bones.
- Black beans contain quercetin and saponins which can protect the heart.
- Black beans contain around 114 kilocalories per half-cup.

So glad to have found this recipe. It looks great, and I’m especially excited to try cooking with these two essential oils!
I haven’t made a bean burger in ages, and this looks soo good I can’t wait to try it!
these look so good, i love the commercially available ones!
I have to be so careful Molli because most all commercial available burgers have gluten in them. So I end up making my own then freeze them 🙂

Thanks for the recipe, I will try it for sure! I always look for original and new vegan and vegetarian recipes, they’re so healty and fun to make =)
I love vegetarian burgers! Majority of the remade ones have gluten in them. It’s so healthy to make my own!
I’ve never had a black bean burger before, but I would love to try it! I’ve always wanted to experience the flavor of a black bean burger…it sounds absolutely delicious! I love that you added yellow onion and red pepper to this recipe as well!
Do you eat Veggie burgers Sarah? I love the ones made with legumes of some sort.
I love veggie burgers. I have never tried the essential oils but thank you for sharing!!!
I like the look of these! I’m looking for an alternative to beef but with no soy. These look easy and delicious!
Thanks Barrie..they have fiber and protein and are yummy.
I love a good veggie burger but hard to find where I live. I want to try this recipe, looks so good and easy to make.
It sounds amazing! Thank you
I think my family would love these. I have been trying to change our diet as a family and have been testing a couple of new recipes every week. This one is going to be on the list this week.
I adore bean burgers, I make them myself in my food-processor; chickpea burgers too.
Love, love black bean burgers! Looks so good for you! Yum!
Black Beans are such a great “meat” alternative!
This looks so good! I am not on a gluten free diet but I am trying to lose weight. I might have to try this! 🙂 Thanks!
This looks amazing OMG lol I just pinned it and I am going to try it
I immediately went and wrote down this recipe in my recipe journal. I want to try it next week. I love veggie burgers of all persuasions. Thanks for this new one to try.
This is fantastic! Meatless burgers that are worth anything are really expensive. I saved this, I’m gonna make these and then freeze them.
never had a black bean burger before. but looks deliciocus
I’ve never tried this. I have tried the meatless frozen burger patty before and didn’t like it. I know fresh is always best. I may try it.
These sound delicious, thank you for sharing this recipe with us.
I totally love meat and potato. I am open to trying this recipe.
These look really good and I’m not a big nonbeef hamburger person!
Those look tasty and sound super good for you!
We have black bean burgers at work… I’m leary about trying them. Many of my co-workers LOVE them… maybe i’d be safer to try them at work and then attempt this recipe 🙂 Do you think I can pass them over to my children? LOL!
YUM! These look good!
