Ingredients

• 3 medium-sized beetroot
• 1 can (400g) chickpeas
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 medium red onion
• 2 large garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel the beetroots and grate them using a box grater or food processor. Set aside.

Step 3

Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly, then mash them using a fork or potato masher in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Finely chop the red onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 5

Add the grated beetroot, chopped onions, minced garlic, rolled oats, cumin powder, coriander powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the mashed chickpeas.

Step 6

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.

Step 7

Form the mixture into 8 patties, using your hands to shape them.

Step 8

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 9

Cook the patties in batches, about 4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.

Step 10

Once cooked, place the patties on a baking sheet and transfer them to the preheated oven. Bake for 10 minutes to ensure they are hot all the way through and have a firm texture.

Step 11

Drizzle with lemon juice before serving for an added zest.

Step 12

Serve the nut-free beetroot patties warm, either on their own or in burgers, wraps, or salads.
