This Jackfruit Burgers recipe will leave you speechless at such a meaty burger without any meat or soy! A little smoky, a little spicy, a LOT delicious!
Drain and rinse the can of jackfruit and then pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel.
14 ounces green jackfruit
Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend on high until the garlic and onion breaks down—about 30-seconds to 1 minute.
½ large yellow onion, ¼ cup whole wheat or all-purpose flour, 3 cloves garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon liquid smoke, ½ teaspoon hot sauce, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ½ teaspoon salt
Use clean hands or a cookie cutter or pancake mold to shape your mixture into patties and lay them out on your lined baking sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Serve immediately with your favorite burger toppings and sides or save for later and reheat in the oven or the grill.
Notes
Make sure the boiled jackfruit has a chance to dry before adding it to the food processor with the rest of your ingredients. Adding it when it's too wet may result in a sloppy burger!
If you're not a fan of spice, simply omit the hot sauce. And if you're a big fan of spice, add a little extra!
You can use either canned or fresh jackfruit.
