Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger (Best Ever, Easy, Hearty)

This Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger is hearty, cozy, and totally satisfying—no meat needed. You get a lightly crisp outside, a tender inside, and big flavor from spices and garlic. It’s perfect for weeknights, cookouts, or meal prep lunches.

Introduction

If you’ve ever made veggie burgers that fall apart, this Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger will make you feel like a kitchen pro. The secret is using mashed sweet potato plus a little binder so the burgers hold together and cook up beautifully.

Ingredients for Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger

Simple pantry ingredients for hearty veggie burgers

Base

  • Sweet potato (1 large, about 12–14 oz): Adds sweetness and helps bind the burger.
  • Shortcut: Use canned sweet potato puree (unsweetened) if you can find it.
  • Black beans, drained and rinsed (1 can, 15 oz): Adds protein and a hearty bite.
  • Swap: Pinto beans.

Flavor

  • Onion, finely chopped (1/3 cup): Adds savory depth.
  • Garlic, minced (2 cloves): Big flavor in a small amount.
  • Chili powder (1 tsp): Warm spice without being too hot.
  • Cumin (1/2 tsp): Gives that “burger” savory vibe.
  • Salt (3/4 tsp) + black pepper (1/2 tsp): Balances everything.

Binders

  • Eggs (1): Helps the burgers hold together.
  • Swap: Liquid egg substitute (1/4 cup).
  • Bread crumbs (1/2 cup): Soaks up moisture so the burger cooks up firm.
  • Swap: Crushed crackers or gluten-free bread crumbs.

For Serving

  • Buns, lettuce, tomato, pickles, sliced onion, and your favorite sauce.

How to Make Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger

Mix, shape, and cook—easy veggie burgers that hold together
  • 1. Cook the sweet potato until very soft. Microwave 6–8 minutes (turning once), or bake at 425°F for 45–55 minutes. Scoop out and mash until smooth.
  • 2. Mash black beans in a bowl until mostly broken down but still a little chunky. Stir in onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  • 3. Mix in mashed sweet potato, egg, and bread crumbs until the mixture holds together when pressed. If it feels too wet, add 1–2 tbsp more bread crumbs.
  • 4. Shape into 4–6 burgers and chill for 10 minutes if you have time. That little rest helps them firm up (and makes cooking easier).
  • 5. Cook in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for 4–5 minutes per side, until browned and hot through. If they brown too fast, lower the heat slightly.
  • 6. Assemble on buns with your favorite toppings and sauces.

Tips for Perfect Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger

  • Cook sweet potato until very soft: It blends smoother and binds better.
  • Keep some bean texture: A little chunkiness makes a better bite.
  • Chill before cooking: Even 10 minutes helps burgers hold shape.
  • Use medium heat: Too hot can brown the outside before the inside sets.
  • Flip gently: Use a thin spatula and let the first side brown well before turning.

Variations & Substitutions

  • Spicy version: Add diced jalapeño or hot sauce to the mix.
  • Smoky twist: Add 1/2 tsp smoked paprika.
  • Gluten-free: Use gluten-free bread crumbs and buns.
  • Extra savory: Add 2 tbsp grated Parmesan-style topping for richer flavor.
  • Leftover idea: Crumble cooked burgers into tacos or burrito bowls.

Make-Ahead & Freezing

Store cooked burgers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the oven at 375°F until hot.
To freeze, place uncooked shaped burgers on a parchment-lined tray, freeze until firm, then store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Cook from frozen on medium-low heat, a bit longer per side, until hot through.

Serving Suggestions & Pairings

  • Serve with baked fries, roasted veggies, or a crunchy slaw.
  • Pair with a simple green salad for a lighter weeknight dinner.
  • Add avocado, spicy mayo, or BBQ sauce for a fun flavor twist.
  • Great for meal prep lunches with extra toppings packed separately.

Description

These sweet potato black bean burgers are the best ever—easy to make, full of flavor, and hearty enough to satisfy any appetite. Perfect for grilling or pan-frying!


Ingredients

Scale

For the Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers:

  • 1 medium sweet potato (about 1 cup, peeled and mashed)

  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and mashed

  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)

  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander (optional)

  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder (optional)

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

For serving:

  • 4 burger buns

  • Lettuce, tomato, pickles, and your favorite burger toppings

  • Optional: Vegan mayo, mustard, or avocado slices


Instructions

  1. Prepare the sweet potato. Peel and chop the sweet potato into chunks. Boil or steam until soft, about 10–12 minutes. Drain and mash the sweet potato.

  2. Mash the black beans. In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down but still a bit chunky.

  3. Combine the ingredients. Add the mashed sweet potato to the black beans, then mix in breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs to help it hold together.

  4. Form the patties. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties, about 1/2-inch thick.

  5. Cook the burgers. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. You can also bake the patties at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  6. Assemble the burgers. Toast the buns (optional). Place a patty on each bun and top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and any other toppings of your choice. Add sauces like vegan mayo or mustard if desired.

– Make-ahead: Jackfruit keeps 5 days refrigerated and tastes even better the next day.
– Oven finish: For a “smokier” pulled texture, spread cooked jackfruit on a sheet pan and bake at 425°F for 10 minutes.
– Tools: Skillet, fork, mixing bowl.

Ingredients
Pasta
– 12 ounces elbow macaroni
– 1 tablespoon kosher salt (for pasta water)
Creamy Vegan Cheese Sauce
– 1 cup raw cashews (soaked in hot water 20 minutes, then drained)
– 1 cup peeled diced russet potato
– 1/2 cup diced carrot
– 1 1/4 cups unsweetened plain non-dairy milk (almond or oat)

Optional crunchy topping

– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
1) Cook pasta. Boil macaroni in salted water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
2) Cook veg for sauce. In a small pot, cover potato and carrot with water. Boil 10 to 12 minutes until very tender. Drain.
3) Blend sauce. In a blender, combine cashews, cooked potato and carrot, non-dairy milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, Dijon, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, smoked paprika, and olive oil. Blend until silky smooth.

Crispy Tofu Nuggets Recipe

SEO keyword: crispy tofu nuggets

These crispy tofu nuggets are golden, crunchy, and perfect for dipping—ideal for a vegan snack, appetizer, or even a main dish.


Recipe Card

Recipe name: Crispy Tofu Nuggets

Description: These crispy tofu nuggets are battered and baked until golden brown, creating the perfect crunchy texture. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce for an irresistible vegan snack.


Ingredients

For the Tofu Nuggets:

  • 1 block extra-firm tofu (14 ounces), drained and pressed

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plant milk (like almond or oat milk)

  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing)

For the Dipping Sauce (optional):

  • 1/4 cup ketchup

  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (optional for spice)

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup


Instructions:

  1. Prep the tofu. Cut tofu into bite-sized nugget pieces, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches each. Place the tofu pieces on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess moisture.

  2. Prepare the flour mixture. In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. Prepare the wet mixture. In another bowl, pour the plant milk.

  4. Prepare the breadcrumbs. In a third bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs.

  5. Coat the tofu. Dip each tofu piece into the flour mixture, then into the plant milk, and finally coat it in the panko breadcrumbs. Ensure the tofu is fully covered with breadcrumbs.

  6. Bake. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the coated tofu pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly brush the tofu with olive oil. Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tofu is golden and crispy on all sides.

  7. Make the dipping sauce. While the tofu bakes, combine ketchup, sriracha (if using), soy sauce, and maple syrup in a small bowl.

  8. Serve. Once the tofu nuggets are done baking, serve them hot with your dipping sauce.


Notes:

  • For extra crunch: You can double-coat the tofu by repeating the flour, milk, and breadcrumb steps.

  • Air fryer option: Air fry at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, shaking halfway through.

  • Make-ahead: You can prep the tofu nuggets and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days before baking.

  • Vegan option: This recipe is already vegan-friendly!

Recipe Card

Recipe name: Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger (Best Ever, Easy, Hearty)

Description: These sweet potato black bean burgers are the best ever—easy to make, full of flavor, and hearty enough to satisfy any appetite. Perfect for grilling or pan-frying!


Ingredients

For the Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers:

  • 1 medium sweet potato (about 1 cup, peeled and mashed)

  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and mashed

  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)

  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander (optional)

  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder (optional)

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

For serving:

  • 4 burger buns

  • Lettuce, tomato, pickles, and your favorite burger toppings

  • Optional: Vegan mayo, mustard, or avocado slices


Instructions:

  1. Prepare the sweet potato. Peel and chop the sweet potato into chunks. Boil or steam until soft, about 10–12 minutes. Drain and mash the sweet potato.

  2. Mash the black beans. In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down but still a bit chunky.

  3. Combine the ingredients. Add the mashed sweet potato to the black beans, then mix in breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs to help it hold together.

  4. Form the patties. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties, about 1/2-inch thick.

  5. Cook the burgers. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. You can also bake the patties at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  6. Assemble the burgers. Toast the buns (optional). Place a patty on each bun and top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and any other toppings of your choice. Add sauces like vegan mayo or mustard if desired.

  7. Serve. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty sweet potato black bean burger!

Notes

  • Freezer-friendly: Freeze uncooked patties on a sheet pan, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Cook from frozen, adding 1–2 extra minutes per side.

  • Spicy option: Add chopped jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat.

  • Make it gluten-free: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and buns.

  • Air fryer option: Cook patties in the air fryer at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
