Ingredients
- 15 oz can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 small carrot, chopped
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/3 cup bread crumbs (I used whole grain)
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (I used toasted sesame seeds)
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
- Place the first 6 ingredients in a food processor and pulse until combined.
- Place garbanzo bean mixture in a bowl and combine with the bread crumbs and sesame seeds.
- Place 1/4 cup of mixture in your hands and form into patties (I used an ice cream scooper to portion the patties-mixture will be moist).
- Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium high heat.
- Cook the patties for 5 minutes.
- Turn the patties, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Serve.
Notes
- *You can place these on buns, although I served them with a slice of avocado on top and dipped them in lemon yogurt sauce.
- To Freeze: After step 3, place patties on a sheet tray and freeze for 30 minutes. Then transfer to a ziploc bag, label and freeze up to 4 months. When ready, defrost in fridge for 24 hours then follow steps 4-7.
