Made in an almond only facility, it is peanut free, ideal for those with peanut allergies. Barney Butter is naturally no-stir and does not need to be refrigerated. Gluten free, no trans fats or hydrogenated oils, and half the saturated fat of peanut butter make Barney Butter a healthy and delicious treat!

Simple Smokey Black Bean Burgers Black Bean Burgers INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 3/4 cups black beans, rinsed + drained
  • 1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup roasted corn
  • 4-6 tablespoons partially ground [gluten free] oats
  • 3 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Barney Butter
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne [optional]
  • 1-2 tablespoon oil for cooking
Black Bean Burgers DIRECTIONS:
  • In a small pan over medium-high heat add 1 tsp of oil and once hot add your corn [fresh or frozen].
  • Cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown, stirring every minute or so.  Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl combine the black beans and almond butter and mash with a fork until about 2/3 of the beans are mashed.
  • Add in the onion, corn, seeds, garlic, and all of the spices.  Gently mix until combined.
  • Add in the partially ground oats and mix gently to combine.  Avoid mashing and over-mixing.
  • At this point the mixture should form a sticky dough that can be formed between your palms into patties.  Compact into a ball and then carefully flatten in between your palms, cupping/pressing the edges until a firm patty is formed.
  • Place a large pan or flat griddle over medium heat with 1-2 Tbsp oil.
  • Form the mixture into 6 medium patties, about 3/4 – 1” thick.  Tightly packed.
  • Place them in the pan [avoiding overcrowding] and cook for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown.  Make sure your heat is not above medium and possibly even a touch below.  You may need to cook them in two batches.  If they’re placed too tightly together it makes them hard to flip.
  • Flip carefully and cook on the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve with your favorite salsa, cheese, avocado, and/or the topping found on Edible Perspective.
