Instructions
Process the Oats: Add the rolled oats to a food processor and pulse until they resemble a coarse flour.
Add the Remaining Ingredients: Add the black beans, edamame, sun-dried tomatoes, white miso, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, Dijon mustard, date syrup, parsley or cilantro, salt, and pepper.
Pulse: Pulse several times until the mixture sticks together when pressed but still has texture. Do not overmix.
Form the Burgers: Use an ice cream scoop to portion the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, plate, or cutting board. Flatten gently with the palm of your hand. Make the burgers as large or small as desired, adjusting the cooking time as needed.
Cook:Skillet: Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and firm. For a smash-burger effect, gently press with a spatula after placing the burgers in the pan.Air Fryer: Arrange the burgers in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 375ºF (190ºC) for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through.Oven: Place the burgers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 400ºF (200ºC) for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Serve: The burgers are ready when lightly browned, firm to the touch, and easy to lift with a spatula. Serve on buns, in homemade corn tortillas, or over a grain and veggie bowl. These burgers also work well on a well-oiled grill or grill mat over medium heat.
