Foolproof veggie burger recipe

Look at the broccoli! I love seeing the whole food ingredients in the burger I am eating, don’t you?

We love all types of veggie burgers – from homemade to restaurant style to store bought – and this white bean veggie burger recipe is our go to. This is the burger that we make most often.

These white bean veggie burgers check all the boxes:

  • easy to make
  • packed with protein AND veggies
  • don’t fall apart
  • great on the grill, baked, AND pan fried

How do you make white bean veggie burgers?

The method is quick and easy! Sauté the onion, garlic and broccoli. Add the nut butter to the sautéed veggies. Mash the beans, add the sauté and oats, form into patties and bake! 

I bake these and we enjoy them all week: as burgers, over salads, in wraps. We usually pan fry when reheating, unless the grill or smoker is up and running. Vegan qhite bean veggie burgers are very good on the smoker!

Are veggie burgers gluten free?

These burgers are gluten free. We sandwich our burgers between gluten free buns or roll up in a gluten free tortilla wrap.

Also, these burgers are soy free. This is good news for those with allergies, where so many vegan alternatives contain gluten and or soy.

 

What should I top these burgers with?

These burgers are mild enough in flavor that any topping is good! We often go traditional with the classic burger fixings like a slice of melty cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, mustard and ketchup. 

Add some tangy flavor with Thousand Island Dressing.

I love to pile on the lettuce, avocado, and Green Goddess for a simple green stack.

If you’re craving a spicy burger, add some Mango Habanero Guacamole!

For some over the top comfort food, I will add a generous pour of Tangy Cheese Sauce.

What should I serve with vegan white bean veggie burgers?

As with the toppings, these burgers love traditional classics like potato or macaroni salad. Depending on the flavors you stack your burger with, we’ve added some options for sides that break tradition a bit.

These veggie burgers pair well with sides like:

  • Hawaiian Mac Salad 
  • Lemon Piccata Potato Salad 
  • Vegan Jello Salad
  • Ginger Lime Brussels Sprouts
  • Buffalo Cauliflower
  • Mango Edamame Quinoa Salad
  • Sesame Broccoli Salad
 

How can I store leftovers?

White bean veggie burgers will last a week in the fridge. Once they are completely cooled, tightly wrap the pancakes or store in a container with a sealing lid.

If you won’t use them within the week, these burgers can also be frozen if you are meal prepping for long term. Separate each burger with parchment, tightly wrap and store in a sealing freezer bag. Use the frozen burgers within 2 months.

      hello Mary mark, every brand of tahini I have used (Artisana, SOOM, Joyva) is made of ground sesame seeds only, and is gluten free and soy free. if you are not allergic to sesame, you should be fine.

      thank you for the message, I am happy you like these burgers!

    Just made these, and while they’re tasty, 1 and 1/2 cups of oats was WAY too many. The mixture was very dry and crumbly, and the patties were oat cakes, and fall apart if you look at them funny. I did not use gluten free oats, since, well, I don’t have a gluten allergy or intolerance, but otherwise used run of the mill quick oats.

    Maybe i’d have better luck running the beans through the food processor, and using half the oats, and will do that if I make them again.

      hmm, I really don’t understand how these can turn out dry, with two cans of beans (my patties are sometimes still on the wet side). the gluten free vs regular oats should not make a difference either. maybe I mash my beans to a consistency as if they were in a food processor, I don’t know.

      I am puzzled – this is our standard go to burger, and I have not had this problem. I am sorry you had a different result – I am going to make these again soon, to see if I can figure out how yours turned out so different. I apologize, I am happy you like the taste!

        I had a hunch as I was mixing them that it was going to be too dry. Not your fault, should have gone with my gut. I think processing the beans and cutting back on the oats would have been perfect! I think finely mashing the beans to a near paste will help them hold together better!
