These Spicy Veggie Burgers are not your typical veggie burger. They kick the heat up a notch with the awesomeness of sriracha. No one will call these burgers ordinary!
Add oats to a food processor and process until it becomes a fine powder/flour.
Add rest of the ingredients (not including oil) and pulse until chopped/mixed well. You don't want the mixture fully smooth - keep things a little bumpy.
Form mixture into 4 patties.
Refrigerate the patties for at least 15 minutes to allow them to harden. I find this helps them to keep their shape and not fall apart when cooking.
Coat the bottom of a large skillet with oil, add burgers (leaving room so they don't touch), and cook for about 4 minutes on each side until they are slightly browned. Cook remaining burgers, adding oil to the skillet if needed. (see notes)
Top burgers with ranch and sriracha (if you like) and enjoy!
Notes
The burgers will keep 3-4 days cooked in the fridge or a few weeks in the freezer.Reheating: Heat them on the stove or grill them when you're ready to eat. Grilling: I recommend frying them first before grilling so the outside is crispy and they don't fall apart on the grill. *Nutritional information is for the veggie patty only. It does not include any sauces or bun info.
