This simple recipe makes eight delicious vegan burgers!
Pour the hot liquid into the bowl with the dry ingredients, then mix together. Add the refined coconut oil, but do not stir it in yet. Let stand for ten minutes. (Be sure to use only a refined coconut oil, or your burgers will have an unpleasant coconut flavor!)
After ten minutes, stir the now melted coconut oil into the mixture.
Divide the burger mixture into eight balls (3.8 oz each if you are using a scale.) Shape each ball into a patty that is 1/2" to 5/8" thick. Press firmly as you shape them so they hold together well.
Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 20 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Carefully turn the burgers over, then bake for another 20 minutes. Flip the cooked burgers back over. You can eat them right away, but the texture is even better if you allow them to cool completely and then reheat them as needed.
Place any leftover burgers in a Ziploc bag and keep them in the fridge. Freeze any that you won't eat within a few days and defrost before reheating.
