Sweet Potato Burgers

This recipe makes 8-10 burgers depending on the size of your patties.

Ingredients

500g Cooked Sweet Potato (leave skin on)

120g Cooked Quinoa

1 Small Chopped Red Onion

50g Red Bell Pepper

40g Fresh Spinach Leaves

3 tsp Ground Cumin

2 tsp Ground Coriander

2 tsp Pureed Garlic

1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Recipe

1) Pre-heat the oven to 180C/350F (you can also cook these in an air fryer).

2) Place all ingredients into food processor and blend until fully combined and the mixture comes together well.

3) Spoon out a large handful of the mixture and shape into a ball. Place the ball of mixture onto a non-stick baking tray and flatten out into a pattie with the back of a fork. If your mixture seems far too wet to start shaping into patties, then add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed or flour (any kind) to the blender and mix further. Keep doing this until the mixture seems a little more solid.

4) Complete making all patties and place in the oven on the tray for 25 mins. Turn your burgers over and continue to cook in the oven for another 25 mins or until the outside is crispy.

5) Remove from the oven and add various salad options such as tomatoes, avocado, lettuce, gherkins, pickled onions etc. You can also add a burger sauce or other condiment of your choice - see our dressings, sauces and condiments recipes for ideas.
