Instructions
- 1Preheat oven to about 205°C (200°C).
- 2In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down but still with some texture.
- 3Add the gluten-free breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and olive oil to the mashed beans. Mix well to combine.
- 4Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- 5Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
