Ingredients

• 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms
• 15 ounces Canned black beans
• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 medium Onion
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseeds
• 6 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 4 slices Vegan Swiss cheese slices
• 4 Vegan hamburger buns
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 1 large Tomato

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the flax egg by combining ground flaxseeds with water in a small bowl. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.

Step 2

While the flax egg is setting, finely chop the cremini mushrooms, onion, and garlic.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic; sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and become lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Drain and rinse the canned black beans. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 6

In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher, leaving some texture.

Step 7

Add the mushroom mixture, rolled oats, soy sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well.

Step 8

Stir in the flax egg and mix until combined. The mixture should hold together when formed into patties.

Step 9

Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.

Step 10

Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 11

Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and firm.

Step 12

Toward the last minute of cooking, place a slice of vegan Swiss cheese on each patty and cover the skillet with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 13

Toast the vegan hamburger buns lightly in the oven or on a skillet if desired.

Step 14

Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a slice of tomato, the mushroom patty with melted cheese, and finally the top bun.

Step 15

Serve immediately and enjoy your vegan mushroom Swiss hamburger.
