Chickpea Patties- Make This Amazing Crunchy and Easy recipe

This easy, healthy sweet potato and chickpea patties are perfect for a dish as a weeknight staple. You can whip it up in under an hour!

I love making homemade patties in big batches so I can then use them in many different ways! Try to stuff them in pitta bread, or serve them like a burger. I even smash the patty on a piece of bread for a quick meal😋. The recipe is quick to make and If you don’t have a blender just use a potato masher to break down the beans a little. Above all, they are pretty easy to customize as well as you can add whatever spice you want to make them YOURS 🙂 If I have any leftovers I store them in a freezer. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do 😁.

Why this recipe works:

This recipe excels as chickpeas and butter beans marry for a blend of textures and flavors. The smoky chipotle, Italian herbs, and a hint of smoked paprika elevate the taste, making these burgers truly stand out. Baking brings a satisfying crunch outside, preserving a moist interior. Irresistible combination!

• Chop any fry your onions first.

• Place your beans in a food processor and process them till they break down. You want some bigger pieces left for texture!
• Add the rest of the ingredients including the fried onion but beside the breadcrumbs.

• Pulse the food processor until the ingredients are finely chopped and well-mixed. Don’t overdo it! You want your burgers to have some texture.

Suggestions and Variations:

• beans – you can substitute the beans for whatever bean you have on hand. I actually have a delicious burger recipe using black beans!

• Experiment with different bean varieties for unique textures.
• Enhance the smokiness with a drizzle of chipotle-infused mayo.
• Top with avocado slices, fresh lettuce, and a dollop of tzatziki for a Mediterranean twist.

Expert Tips to Perfect Chickpea Patties:

• Ensure your blender setting is low to maintain some texture in the patty mix.

• Allow the formed patties to chill for the full 20 minutes; this enhances their shape and texture.

• Use clean hands when forming the patties for a homemade touch and consistent size.

• Keep an eye on the baking time to achieve the ideal crispy exterior without overcooking the insides.

• Consider lightly oiling your hands when forming the patties to prevent sticking and create a smoother texture.

• I make 8 big burger patties or 12 smaller ones if I want to use them to stuff my pitta bread (pictured below).

Frequently asked questions:

Are these patties gluten-free? 

They are if you use gluten-free breadcrumbs!

Can they be fried?

Yes! Coat the bottom of a medium skillet with olive oil and place it over medium heat. When the oil is hot, arrange the patties in the skillet, cooking as many as you can fit without crowding. Cook the patties for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden and crisp.

Can I substitute chickpeas with another legume for these patties?

Absolutely, white beans work well as a substitute for chickpeas, providing a similar texture.

Is it necessary to fry the onions, or can I add them raw to the blender?

Frying the onions adds a caramelized depth, but if you don’t mind the stronger onion flavor, you can add them raw to the blender.

Storage:

Store leftover burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Reheating:

Reheat in the oven at 180°C for 10-12 minutes or until heated through.
