These Easy Mini Black Bean Burger Sliders are the perfect vegan appetizer or main course! Made with Rhodes Dinner Rolls for the perfect homemade touch!
Ingredients
- 9 Rhodes Yeast Dinner Rolls
- 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax seed meal + 2 tbsp water)
- 1 can black beans drained, not rinsed
- ½ cup diced red onion
- ½ jalapeño diced (seeds are optional- keep as many or as few as you would like depending on preferred spice level)
- ½ cup regular breadcrumbs
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tsp black pepper
- ½ tbsp onion powder
- ½ tbsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp chili pepper
- burger toppings of your choice (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Cook the thawed Rhodes Yeast Dinner Rolls according to the package instructions.
- While the dinner rolls are baking, begin gathering the ingredients to make the black bean burgers.
- Mix together the flax seed meal and water in a small dish to create the flax egg. Set aside in the freezer to thicken until needed.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the drained black beans. Using a potato masher, mash them until most of the beans are smashed, leaving a few whole beans.
- Add in all seasonings, breadcrumbs, red onion, jalapeño and flax egg. Stir with a large spoon to combine.
- Preheat a lightly oiled pan on the stove to low medium-heat.
- Using a ¼ measuring cup, scoop out ¼ cup of the black bean burger mixture and form a small patty using your hands. Set aside on a clean surface (like a cutting board or plate). Repeat until all of the mixture has been used.
- Increase the pan's temperature to medium and add in your mini black bean burgers (3-4 at a time depending on how large your pan is). Cook for about 5 minutes on each side or until browned.
- While the patties are cooking, you can begin preparing the toppings for your burgers.
- Once all of the burgers are finished cooking, you can begin building your burgers with toppings as you'd like.
- Serve and enjoy!
