How to Prepare White Bean and Pumpkin Veggie Burgers [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Mix the flaxseed meal and water in a small bowl and set it aside for 15 minutes to thicken into a flax “egg.”
In the meantime, grab a medium pan, and add in 2-3 tablespoons of water, along with the onions, garlic, and celery. Sauté until translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
In a food processor, add in the flax “egg,” cooked vegetables, and all of the remaining ingredients. Process for 30-45 seconds, or until all ingredients are blended together but still remain a bit chunky. Place into the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and form mixture into patties using a mold or the top ring of a mason jar, then place them onto the lined pan. Each patty should be about 1/3 cup large, and this will result in 8 patties. Place in the refrigerator to set for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake patties for 25 minutes, carefully flip, then bake for another 5-10 minutes or until browned.
Allow the patties to cool completely before assembling your burgers.
