These chickpea burgers make a great barbecue treat. I love spicing mine up with chillies, but if you are catering for children or those with less spicy palates, you may simply want to omit these.

Cooking Instructions

In a food processor or blender, mix together the oats and chickpeas. Pour contents into a large bowl.
In the same food processor or blender (no need to wash), add the remaining ingredients and whizz. Pour into the bowl containing the oats – chickpea mixture. Mix well.
Using your hands, mould the mixture into 5-6 large patties.
Chill for 20 minutes or overnight to firm up.
Pan fry in a little coconut oil for 7-8 mins, or grill or barbecue for 10-12 mins, turning half-way through to cook both sides.
Serve. I love serving mine with guacamole and lots of fresh salad.
