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!

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!
Hope you get this, burgers look great have no walnuts but i do have raw peanuts if i toast them do you think it would work?
Lynn peanuts will be fine. Process it in a food processor.
this recipe looks delicious. I see comments about cracked wheat or bulghar
and looked back at the recipe those ingredients are not listed recipe above.
Thanks Priscilla, made the original recipe years ago before I changed to gluten-free diet (hence the title ‘Makeover’ so I edited the recipe and it tastes better!
The best burger recipe ever, I make this all the time!
Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Appreciate it
We often have leftover oatmeal and cooked rice, so I was looking for a recipe to use up both. Do you think I could substitute cooked oatmeal for the 4 cups of water and 4 cups of oats and how many cups? Just wondering if you’ve done it.
Misty, I haven’t done it with cooked oatmeal but you could try. The flavor would be right on but I’m not sure about the texture since cooked oatmeal is gooey!
I don’t normally take the time to comment when I’m pinning recipes I want to try, but DAVID is adorable. I had to stop and comment. I’m going to try this recipe this week!! Thanks for sharing.
Ah, thanks a lot Jessie! Please enjoy.
I’m so sorry I,didn’t learn about your site sooner. But I’m so glad I found you. This BURGER is one of the best that I have ever made, (and I’ve been vegan for a long time, and have tried so many many ?). If this is a taste of what’s in your cookbook, I can’t wait to receive mine. Keep up the great work and sharing. There can never be enough great recipes and cookbooks out there. God bless your ministry.
Renee thanks a lot, I’m so happy you found my site and that you had great results with my recipe. Thanks for your support, I really appreciate it! God bless you too.
I just ran across this recipe on Pinterest today and made them this evening. They are delicious and so simple to make!
That’s awesome Shannon, i’m happy you enjoy them!
I think I’m missing something. Do you add the black beans, walnuts and nutritional yeast after the mixture cooks before forming burgers. I’m assuming so but just want to make sure. Thanks looks amazing.
Hello Denise, I just updated the instructions. Hope they are easier to understand. Hope you enjoy them!
This look sooo delish, def gotta try it.
