Kidney bean burger preparation is simple and goes quickly. All you need is a can of kidney beans and all the other ingredients you usually already have at home.

In my variant, the corn is already integrated as a vegetable. Of course, you can also bake the kidney bean burgers without corn or oatmeal. Then they are perhaps not quite as fluffy, but just as tasty and nutritious. Just try my super tasty burgers.

Tips

Use fresh herbs such as parsley or even cilantro. Cook dried kidney beans and make burgers out of them. This way you can bake several and freeze quite a few. This saves time and you always have a few kidney bean burgers on hand. Dried beans, however, need to be placed in water for 1 day before cooking. With a pressure cooker they are then ready in no time.
