Smoky Chipotle Burger Patties

A great burger is juicy, smoky, and packed with flavor. We took everything we love about a classic chipotle burger and created a hearty, satisfying plant-based version that even meat-eaters will devour. These black bean patties are easy to make, hold together perfectly, and deliver that smoky kick you crave.

This recipe is a perfect example of how exciting plant-based cooking can be. It was inspired by the simple, flavor-first approach found in a fantastic digital cookbook we can’t get enough of. Find out more after the recipe!
