Beetroot burgers (opens in new tab) are hearty veggie (opens in new tab) burgers that are both delicious and nutritious. These brilliant burgers have a vibrant colour from the beetroot (opens in new tab), and are lightly spiced to give a well rounded flavour. We’ve served our beetroot burgers in toasted burger buns, topped with mayo, ribboned vegetables and fresh mint for the ultimate veggie burger fix. These vegan- (opens in new tab)friendly burger patties contain no egg, but are bound together using beans and oats. To keep the whole recipe vegan, simply use a vegan mayo instead or regular mayo. These moist and flavourful beetroot burgers mean veggies don’t have to miss out on burger night. They’re so good that even meat eaters will be dying to tuck in!
