I agree with Steve Grinavic: EXCEPTIONAL!! I made these tonight and even my picky BF loved them. I toasted some whole-wheat pitas and spread FF mayo and some avocado on them. I took Steve's healthy advice and usd ground whole oats (1 cup) instead of the bread crumbs. I also added two extra cloves of garlic, and I used dried basil since I didn't have any fresh around. They were really, really awesome. Thanks so much for posting this, I will make them all the time!!!! -
Exeptional. I used 2x fresh basil and oregano and doubled the garlic. I did substitute ground oats for the bread crumbs to make it even more healthy! Coarsly cut the onion then threw everything in a deep sided bowl and used an immersion blender to finish chopping/mixing. I think it took longer to open the cans than anything else. Thanks Mini! -
I hate to say this, b/c of all the great reviews, but my husband and I didn't care too much for these burgers. I thought they tasted alright. I think that for me though they needed more of a spicy flavor. I may use this basic recipe agian but instead make the burgers spicy. My husband just plain out didn't like the burgers. But then again, he is quite the meat eater! I also didn't care for the cinnamin flavor. It didn't go well w/ the ketchup and mustard that I put on my burger. Maybe it's just my tastes, so please don't take this to offense or let my review hinder you from making this! -
So good. This was my first attempt at making black bean burgers and I will definitely revisit this recipe again! I used about 1 1/4 cups of panko flakes and added a packet of taco seasoning instead of the individual spices. Pan fried with olive oil spray and they came out great!

These taste amazing! A couple of modifications: I ground up oatmeal and used that in place of bread crumbs, and I added some dried cilantro. I also cooked mine in a frying pan because I don't have a grill. The only thing is how easily they fall apart; you really have to take care to form them tightly when you're shaping the patties. This was my first attempt at black bean burgers of any kind, and I'm glad that they were such a success.

Delicious! I spiced the patties with cumin, chilli powder, cajun seasoning, and garlic salt instead of the spices listed. I also used oat flour instead of bread crumbs and added a bit of matzah meal. I fried them in olive oil in a nonstick pan. I will definitely make these again!

First time with a meatless burger... AWESOME! I used corn flake crumbs instead of bread crumbs because I'm gluten free, and used grill seasoning instead of the other spices. Will definitely make again and again!
