Description

Discover the ultimate plant‑based Tempeh Mushroom Burgers, packed with savory umami from mushrooms, protein‑rich tempeh, and hearty black beans. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a weekend BBQ, these burgers are gluten‑free, vegan, and bursting with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces tempeh
  • 8 ounces mushrooms (white button, cremini, oyster, or shiitake)
  • 2 cups baby spinach or kale
  • 1 (15‑ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed (or 1 ½ cups cooked beans)
  • 3 tablespoons flaxseed meal
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or white wine or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons whole grain mustard or Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon maple syrup
  • ⅓ cup oat flour or all‑purpose, or whole‑wheat pastry flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram or dried herbs
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, pulse the tempeh and mushrooms until coarsely chopped.
  2. Add the spinach, black beans, flaxseed meal, tomato paste, vinegar, mustard, sriracha (if using), maple syrup, oat flour, marjoram, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder. Pulse until the mixture holds together but is still slightly chunky.
  3. Form the mixture into four equal patties.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the patties for 5–6 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve the burgers on whole‑grain buns with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra crispiness, bake the patties at 400°F for 12 minutes per side. You can freeze the uncooked patties for up to 2 months. Substitute any mushroom variety you prefer, or add a splash of soy sauce for deeper umami.
