Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup organic brown sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1 14oz can black beans
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded beets
  • 1 small diced onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1-2 Tbsp high heat oil Avocado or Canola Oil work well.
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Begin by making the balsamic reduction. Stir the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar together in a small saucepan and place over medium-low heat.
  • Bring the mixture to a simmer, lower heat and allow to cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is about as thick as chocolate syrup, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove the balsamic reduction from the heat and allow it to cool for a few minutes while you prep the remaining ingredients.
  • Place the oats into a food processor bowl and blend to a coarse powder.
  • Add the beans, beets, onion, garlic, dill, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the balsamic reduction to the food processor.
  • Pulse until the ingredients are finely chopped and well combined. Taste test the mixture and adjust any seasonings to your liking.
  • Lightly oil a medium skillet and place it over medium heat.
  • Shape the beet mixture into 6 patties and arrange as many as you can in the skillet without overcrowding. Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side, until lightly browned.
  • Drizzle 1-2 teaspoons of the balsamic reduction over each patty. Flip and drizzle the opposite sides. Flip again and cook for a few seconds before removing the patties from the skillet. Cook any remaining patties in the same manner, adding oil to the skillet as needed between batches.
  • Stuff the patties into buns and top with toppings of choice. Drizzle with some of the excess balsamic reduction if you like.
  • Serve
