I kicked off 2020 by celebrating Veganuary, where I maintained a plant-based diet for the month of January. It was a great start to the year, but as the months have gone by and things have gotten crazy, I have found myself eating more meat again. So, when the kids asked for burgers this week, I decided I needed to do a little experimenting in the kitchen.

Remove the burgers from heat and place on buns with your favorite toppings! 

How do I serve the Vegan White Bean Burgers?

I like to serve them on hamburger buns with lettuce, tomato, red onion and Dijon mustard as pictured here. However, they are also delicious without a bun and served on top of a bed of greens. My kids had there vegan bean burgers the same way they would have a regular burger: on a bun with mustard, ketchup and pickles.

Can I store the Vegan White Bean Burgers?

They are best eaten right after making them. However, they can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. They can also be stored in the freezer in a covered container for up to 30 days.

  1. What an awesome recipe! I love being able to switch out for more healthy ingredients, especially when my family doesn't even notice the difference.

    5 stars

  2. I love bean burgers, but have never tried to make them myself! Thank you for sharing this yummy looking recipe. I'm going to try to make my own soon.
  3. It is great that you make your own. We have a place here in the UK that makes Vegan burgers and we buy direct they are yummy x
    1. I'm not a fan of white beans but I have had bean burgers that were moist and delicious. This looks really good.
    1. Hi Kathryn, I apologize for my delayed response. It is puréed tomatoes. I appreciate you asking and I have updated the recipe!
  4. Hi! Would the texture of these patties work if I use cooked frozen beans? Canned white beans are hard to get where I live.
    1. Yes, I think they would work fine. Since, you’re just going to mash the beans up. Anyway, I think frozen beans would work well. Let me know if you try them and how they taste.
