Ingredients
1 1/3cuprolled oats
2tablespoonsraw pumpkin seeds
1/2teaspoongarlic powderor more to taste
1/4teaspoonground hot chiliesor cayenne powder
1teaspooncurry powder
1/2teaspoongaram masala
1/2teaspoonsaltoptional
1small mangopeeled and coarsely chopped
1 1/2cupscooked lentils
Instructions
Process the oats with the pumpkin seeds and spices in a food processor or high powered blender until it's partially flour and there are still a few oats visible. Add to a medium bowl.
Add mango to the food processor or blender and run until it's mostly pureed with a few small chunks left. Add to the bowl with the oat mixture.
Process the lentils until they're chopped up or mash with a fork and add to bowl with the oats and mango.
Thoroughly mix all the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate at least 15 minutes. Longer is fine if the mixture is in a well sealed container.
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Cover a baking sheet with parchment. Form the mixture into 6 patties and place on the parchment. Bake for 10 minutes, flip the patties, and then bake for another 8 minutes until each side is lightly browned. Eat immediately or refrigerate or freeze to enjoy later. Bonus: cut the parchment you used for baking into squares to place between the patties so they don't stick together when they're stored.
Notes
No food processor or blender? Use oat flour instead. Whisk in spices and finely chopped pumpkin seeds. Use store-bought mango puree or even mango salsa.
