Ingredients

• 1 cup cooked lentils
• 0.5 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cup walnuts
• 0.5 medium, diced onion
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 3 tablespoons water
• 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 cup, shredded Brussels sprouts
• 1 medium, shredded carrot
• 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 burger buns
• 0 optional toppings (lettuce, tomato, pickles, etc.)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water to make a flax egg. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it thickens.

Step 3

In a food processor, pulse the rolled oats and walnuts until they form a coarse powder.

Step 4

Add the cooked lentils, diced onion, garlic cloves, soy sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, and the prepared flax egg into the food processor. Pulse until the mixture comes together but is still slightly chunky.

Step 5

Form the mixture into 4 equal patties and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 6

While the patties are baking, prepare the Brussels sprout slaw by tossing the shredded Brussels sprouts, carrot, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.

Step 7

Toast the burger buns if desired.

Step 8

Assemble the burgers by placing the lentil patty on the bottom half of the bun, adding a generous scoop of Brussels sprout slaw, and finishing with optional toppings like lettuce, tomato, or pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Sprout N Burger!
