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.

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 🙂

This is fantastic! Meatless burgers that are worth anything are really expensive. I saved this, I’m gonna make these and then freeze them.

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.

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!
