Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers
These vegan sweet potato–black bean burgers spiced with curry powder are easy to make. Blending the mixture with your hands gives you a soft, uniform texture, and then the outside gets crispy by cooking in a cast-iron pan. To make this recipe gluten-free, use gluten-free oats and serve the patty in a lettuce wrap, omitting the bun.
