The Ultimate Vegan Oatmeal Burger (Makeover)
The Ultimate Vegan Oatmeal Burger (Makeover) is full of flavor, deliciously served with burger buns and garnishes or with your favorite gravy and mashed potatoes!
This recipe is definitely a winner. They can be made in larger quantities and they freeze well.
Black beans may be substituted with kidney beans. Pecans, almonds, and cashew may be used instead of walnuts.
This recipe can be modified to use the herbs that you like.
*I decided to redo the recipe to make it gluten-free as well. My readers kept asking me about substitutions and because it’s such a popular recipe I decided to go ahead and do a makeover.
This version is very delicious, my seven-year-old, who is very picky wanted another burger!
Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 1/2 cup Bragg’s liquid aminos soy sauce, or [lasso id=”76698″ link_id=”35733″ ref=”amzn-betterbody-foods-organic-coconut-aminos-soy-sauce-alternative-gluten-free-soy-free-non-gmo-kosher-16-9-ounces-pack-of-1″],
- 1 tablespoon onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 4 cups quick cooking oats
- 1 cup cooked rice or quinoa
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 cup cooked black bean
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
Directions
Preheat oven 400 degrees. Bring water to boil in a saucepan.
Add Bragg’s liquid aminos, onion , garlic, yeast flakes, Italian seasoning and cayenne pepper.
Stir in oats, cooked rice, walnuts, black beans, and flax seeds.
Reduce heat and keep on stirring until liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow to cool enough to handle.
Using a large canning jar lid including the rim, form patties placing them on a lightly oiled cookie sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes, turning halfway. You may also cook in a lightly oiled skillet on both sides. Top with your favorite toppings!
My son Daevyd helped me to make these burgers and, he enjoyed eating his burger so much. He kept telling me how good it tasted!

This recipe looks great. 2 of my favorite items, oatmeal and black beans. I love that it is tofu free.
I’m going to post this one, too, thank you.
Hi Franklin! This is Lisa Wolfe…have you tried these yet?
@Nikki, you can find cracked wheat or bulghar in the health section of most large chain supermarkets or in a healthfood store.
This looks so delicious, you have me drooling!

This recipe appears simple; burger looks delicious. Where can I find Braggs liquid aminos?
Valencia, it is simple, Braggs liquid aminos can be found in health food stores beside soy sauce or substitute with soy sauce or tamari.
Thanks so much! I’ll attempt to make the burgers this week.
You are welcome Valencia, please enjoy!
