  • With a large spoon mix all ingredients together until all combined. Once all ingredients are mixed, mold 8 evenly sized veggie patties and place on wax paper for easy removal.
  • Now, heat olive oil (about 1½ TBSP) evenly in a 10 inch iron or a non stick skillet over medium to medium high heat.
  • With a spatula remove the sweet potato burgers from the wax paper and gently place them in the skillet.
  • Once browned on bottom, flip over with a spatula. Adjust heat and add more oil as needed between batches. Cook until both sides have browned.
  • Now you are ready to serve your veggie burgers. Present on a bun or serve bunless, either way is a delicious choice.
