These burgers are called epic for a reason, there’s a little work putting them together, but believe us it’s worth the effort.

Recipe inspired by Sabeen from Mumchic.

Quinoa Patties

STEP 1

Combine all the ingredients listed above except the eggs. Add the eggs and mix well until the entire mixture comes together.

If the mixture is too wet at this point, you can add in a sprinkle more of breadcrumbs to even the moisture out.

STEP 3

Shape the mixture into 12 burger like patties. Heat a medium-sized fry pan coating the base with cooking oil. Place about 6 patties with enough room to flip.

STEP 4

Bring the heat to medium and cook for about 6-7 minutes or until the cakes are golden brown on either side.
