Instructions

1. 1Rinse and drain the black beans thoroughly. Pat them dry with paper towels.
2. 2Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
3. 3In a food processor, combine the black beans, gluten-free rolled oats, chopped onion, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well combined but still has some texture, not a smooth paste.
4. 4Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
5. 5Preheat oven to about 205°C (200°C).
6. 6Wash and cut the sweet potatoes into fries. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
7. 7Spread the sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet.
8. 8Bake the fries for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and crispy.
9. 9While the fries are baking, cook the black bean burgers. You can pan-fry them in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or bake them on a separate baking sheet for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until heated through and firm.
10. 10Serve the black bean burgers on gluten-free buns with your favorite toppings and the sweet potato fries.
