Step 1

In a food processor, blend oats until fine.

Step 2

Add in half of black beans, onion, pepper, and garlic. Pulse until just combined, not too long because you do not want it to turn into mush. I pulsed 6 times.

Step 3

Pour mixture into bowl. Add in rest of black beans, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper.

Step 4

Stir in gently until well combined. Let sit for 10 minutes to thicken.

Step 5

Form into 6-8 patties.

Step 6

Heat a pan with 2 tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side.

Step 7

Serve immediately.
