Toppings

  • 3 vegan burger buns

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200C.

  • Top with ingredients and you're good to go!

Notes

  1. This recipe can be made gluten free! Use gluten free oats and gluten free burger buns. 
  2. This recipe does not work with pan frying. Baking and air frying have been the best options. 
  3. This recipe serves 2 people with huge patties and about 3-4 people if you make the patties thin, like pictured above.
