Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can great northern beans, or any white bean drained and rinsed
  • 1 package (16 ounces) extra firm tofu pressed
  • 2 small carrots peeled and cut into quarters
  • 2 garlic cloves peeled
  • ¼ Vidalia onion cut into pieces
  • 2 cups plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 to 3 sprigs fresh dill
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (212°C).
  • Press the tofu using a tofu press. This gets the excess water of the tofu out to make the burger less mushy.
    1 package (16 ounces) extra firm tofu
  • Drain and rinse the beans. Then, use a paper towel or tea towel to remove excess water from the beans.
    1 (15.5 ounce) can great northern beans, or any white bean
  • Cut the garlic, carrots, and onion into smaller pieces.
    2 small carrots, 2 garlic cloves, ¼ Vidalia onion
  • In a food processor combine the tofu, beans, garlic, carrots, onions, fresh parsley, fresh herbs, and breadcrumbs. Pulse until it forms a thick mixture. You may need to scrap the sides down.
    2 cups plain breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 to 3 sprigs fresh dill
  • Transfer the mixture into a bowl. Add seasonings of choice. I did salt, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and paprika. You can taste this mixture and add in more seasonings to your preference.
    1 tablespoon paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • I made 6 patties, you can make as many or as little as you like. I divided the weight of the mixture by 6, so that was around 5.5 ounces/160g per patty. I suggest lightly wetting your hands to help you form the patties. Place on a lined baking sheet.
  • I sprayed the patties with oil spray for baking. Then, bake for 35 minutes. Flip the patties after 25 minutes of cooking.
  • Finally, add to your favorite bun and serve with any toppings or sauces you like.
