Walnut Oatmeal Burgers Recipes

WALNUT BURGERS

Steps:

• Grind walnuts in blender or food processor, then mix with the rest of the burger mixture ingredients: oats, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, onion, garlic, sage, and salt/pepper. Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about an hour to let the flavors come together and thicken slightly.
• Place a skillet over medium heat and add in just enough oil to make a thin layer. Form the patties, then lightly fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Once patties are brown, add the vegetable broth to cover the patties, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
• I love these most with fresh tomato slices, lettuce, pickled and spicy mustard!

DRIVE-IN WALNUT BURGER

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over high heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.
• In a food processor, combine walnuts, garbanzo beans, bread crumbs, grill seasoning, paprika, pepper flakes, oil and vinegar and pulse until coarsely ground.
• In a small bowl whisk egg, add to food processor and pulse for 10 seconds, just enough to incorporate egg. Divide into 4 equal-size parts; roll into balls, and flatten with the palm of your hand into 3/4-inch-thick patties.
• Place burgers on oiled grill. Cook 4 minutes per side.
• Serve hot on toasted buns with lettuce, tomato, avocado and honey mustard.

WALNUT OATMEAL BURGERS

Steps:

• 1. Grind walnuts in blender, then combine with the rest of the burger mixture ingredients.
• 2. Let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for about an hour to let the flavors meld together.
• 3. Form the mixture into patties. The entire mixture will make 8-12 burgers depending on the size of the patty formed. It is recommended to use half of the mixture now and reserve the rest for use in another recipe or for more burgers later.
• 4. Brown patties on both sides in a lightly oiled skillet. Then pour the stock into the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 25 minutes.
• 5. Serve on buns with all your burger fixings. Serve with a veggie or salad. Enjoy!
