- 2¼ cups seasoned panko breadcrumbs
- Butter & olive oil for pan frying.
- Spices:
- ¾ tsp Salt

- Mash & smash beans, then add onions and spices.
- Taste your mixture to be sure you’re satisfied with flavor profile BEFORE adding the eggs.
- Add eggs & stir thoroughly.
- Slowly add breadcrumbs until the recommended consistency is reached. The mix should be able to form a patty that holds together but is not too dry. It will be a bit sticky before cooking.
- Add half butter, half olive oil to pan. Cook your burger a few minutes on each side until nicely browned.

Don’t forget to add a nice, soft bun. No dried up, crumbling stale buns are allowed. But, seriously, you can still make this even without a bun. Lightly toast up two slices of bread and you’re all set. Now dig into this black bean burger, for goodness sake. Go make it right now!
