Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Place flax and water in a small bowl, stirring to combine. Set aside to "gel." You can also use a real egg in place of a flax egg.
- Place drained and rinsed beans and avocado in a large bowl. Use a fork to mash mixture together, leaving some beans whole.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, foil, or a silipat. Spray with cooking spray. Form mixture into four tightly-packed patties.
- Bake for 40 minutes, carefully flipping halfway through.
