Black Bean and Cranberry Burgers with Chipotle Hummus

• 1 cup Homemade Bread Crumbs, From Sprouted Or Whole Grain Bread
• 2 cans (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Drained
• 1 whole Egg
• 1 cup Frozen Sweet Corn
• 1/2 cups Finely Chopped Bell Pepper
• 2 cloves Minced Garlic
• 13 cups Dried Cranberries
• 13 cups Grated Carrots
• 1/2 teaspoons Sea Salt
• 1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
• 1/2 teaspoons Onion Powder
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric
• 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil, For Cooking The Patties
• 1 cup Hummus
• 3 Tablespoons Chipotle Adobo Sauce
• 6 whole Kaiser Buns
• 1 whole Sliced Tomatoe
• 1 whole Sliced Red Onion
• 6 leaves Lettuce
• 1 cup Alfalfa Sprouts

1. In your coffee grinder or mini food processor, finely grind 2-3 slices of sprouted or whole grain bread.
2. Set out on a plate to dry out a bit while you put everything else together.
3. Tip: I make a big batch of bread crumbs and freeze in a Mason jar for convenience.
4. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
5. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients for the burger patties, except the oil.
6. Lightly oil a heavy baking pan such as a broiler pan.
7. You can also fry these on a grill pan if you wish.
8. Using your hands, scoop a big handful of the bean mixture into a ball and then gently shape into a thick patty.
9. Place on the oiled grill pan.
10. Repeat until all of the mixture is gone.
11. Bake at 425 degrees F for 12-18 minutes until slightly crispy and hot.
12. To prepare the chipotle hummus, mix the hummus with the adobo sauce (not the chipotle peppers).
13. To assemble the sandwiches, put burgers on kaiser buns spread with chipotle hummus and layered with freshly sliced tomatoes, onion, lettuce and sprouts.
