INGREDIENTS
Directions
If using beans, grind them in a food processor until crumbly. If using fish (such as salmon, shown below), you can ask your grocer to grind it for you, or grind it at home using a food processor. (If you don’t have a food processor, chop the beans or fish finely with a knife.)
In a large bowl, mix the ground meat, fish, or beans with the egg white, shredded coconut, garlic powder, onion flakes, and tamari or coconut aminos. Shape into four large or six small patties.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat, then add the coconut oil. Cook the patties until golden brown on the bottom, three to six minutes.
Flip the burgers over and reduce the heat to low; cook for another five minutes, until brown and crisp. Serve immediately with your favorite burger toppings on a salad or in a lettuce wrap. (As an alternative to the stovetop, you can bake these burgers in the oven at 350 degrees F until cooked through to your liking.)
