Ingredients

  • 1 cup cashews unsalted
  • 1 cup walnuts unsalted
  • 1 cup sunflower seeds unsalted
  • 1 cup almonds unsalted
  • 1 cup carrots shredded
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic
  • 2 ½ teaspoon curry
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Burger fixins' buns, pickles, tomatoes, avocado, thinly sliced red onion, ketchup - whatever you enjoy on your burger!

Instructions

  • Using a Vitamix Blender or your food processor, begin by chopping the nuts. It's best to do them in several separate batches because if you put too many in at once it will gum-up the machine. Pulse and process them into a fine powder. When complete, put them into a large mixing bowl.
  • Shredded the carrots and add them to the bowl along with all of the spices. Mix to combine.
  • Shape them into burger patties.
  • Heat a non stick skillet over medium heat and add about a tablespoon of oil.
  • When hot, place patties in skillet. Fry until golden brown on side one - about 3-4 minutes. Flip and brown side two.
  • When burgers are golden brown, remove from skillet and build your burgers!

Notes

This recipe requires a high speed mixer to properly pulverize the nut meat. If it is not pulverized completely the nut burger mixture will crumble and fall apart.
