Ingredients
For the Burgers
- 1 bunch parsley stems trimmed
- 1 14-ounce can chickpeas
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup chickpea flour
For Serving, optional
- 4 whole wheat or gluten-free buns
- 1/2 cup lemon tahini dressing
- Sliced cucumber
- Sliced tomatoes
- Sliced onion
- Lettuce leaves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the parsley in a food processor fitted with an s-blade. Pulse a few times, until the parsley is chopped.
- Add the chickpeas, garlic, tahini, cumin, salt, and pepper to the food processor. Process until everything is mixed together, and the mixture resemble a chunky paste. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of your food processor once or twice. Pulse in the chickpea flour.
- Form the burgers into four patties. If you have one, a ring mold will help shape them, but forming patties by hand is completely fine.
- Bake the burgers for 10-12 minutes. Flip them and bake for an addition 8-12 minutes. They should be golden brown and firm.
