Vegan Oatmeal Burgers

• 1 cup textured vegetable protein
• 1/4 cup quick-cooking rolled oats (not instant)
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon dried garlic flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon dried onion flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
• 3/4 cup boiling water
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon smooth peanut butter
• 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes (optional)

1. Place first eight ingredients in a mixing bowl and toss them together.
2. Pour the hot water into a small mixing bowl and add the ketchup and soy sauce and stir it up. Add the liquid to the textured vegetable protein, stir until well combined and let sit for 5 minutes.
3. Add the peanut butter and mix until it is well incorporated. Then stir in the whole wheat flour (and nutritional yeast, if desired) and mix thoroughly.
4. Shape the mixture into 4 flat, equal patties and keep them on wax paper.
5. Coat a large skillet with a bit of canola oil over medium heat. When hot add patties and reduce heat to medium-low to slowly brown the patties (about 6 to eight minutes each side).
