- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher.
- Add the cooked quinoa, rolled oats, chopped onion, minced garlic, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
- If using, add the chopped cilantro.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
- Form the mixture into 4-6 patties.
- Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and firm.

Notes
- For a firmer patty, let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before forming.

- Feel free to add other vegetables like finely chopped bell peppers or corn.
