Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325°F. Spread canned beans evenly onto a baking tray and bake for 15 minutes until slightly dried out.
Step 2
Separately sauté olive oil, ginger, chopped bell pepper in a pan over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes.
Step 3
Add the beans to a big bowl and mash with a fork, leaving some larger chunks. Add the bell peppers, cumin powder and paprika/ red chili powder. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
Step 4
Crumble the bread and add it to the mix. Add corn starch, gluten-free all purpose flour and bring everything together. The mixture will feel sticky, but that’s what keeps the patties moist. Make about 6 round patties from the mix. Use oil on your hands to make the process less sticky.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 375°F. Place patties on a greased baking tray and bake for 10 minutes on each side. Patties are ready! Grill the patties with a slice of cheese for 3-4 mins on a grill or on a pan on the stove.
Step 6
Assemble the burger using gluten-free buns, spinach leaves, tomato slices, queso (optional) and lots of guacamole. Serve with a side of salad/ baked plantain fries and enjoy!
