These patties are nutritious and delicious. The touch of nutritional yeast adds a little cheesy umami to the flavor without overpowering any ingredients.

Recipe type: Side
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 small patties
Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon + 2 tablespoons oil, divided
  • ⅓ cup minced onion
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 8 ounces button or cremini mushrooms, finely diced
  • ½ cup nuts or seeds, ground to a coarse powder (see Nut or Seed Note below)
  • Scant ½ cup flour of choice (see Flour Note below)
  • 2 medium eggs (or 1 large or extra-large), lightly beaten
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, minced
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • ¾ to 1 teaspoon salt, to taste
  • Fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. In a large fry pan, heat the 1 teaspoon oil over medium-low heat. Add the onions and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute more.
  2. Place the onions and garlic in a medium-sized bowl. Add the diced mushrooms, ground nuts or seeds, flour, eggs, parsley, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in your frying pan over medium-high heat. You want it hot, but not too hot, so be careful. If you can handle the batter, feel free to shape it into nice round 2 to 3 inch patties. If not, simply drop large spoonfuls of the batter onto the fry pan, flattening them to create patties with the back of your spatula.
  4. Cook the patties for about 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and cooked through.
Notes
Nut or Seed Note: I grind ¼ cup sunflower seeds and ¼ cup almonds together in my spice grinder. I do think almonds, cashews, or walnuts will go best for the flavor combination, but seeds help to keep the cost down and the nutrition up! You can also use all seeds for nut-free needs.

Flour Note: I grind just under ½ cup oats in my spice grinder to achieve a flour. But any flour (including gluten-free) should work
