Spicy Oat Sliders
These vegan spicy oat burgers are crispy on the outside, tender in the middle and packed with warming spices, hearty oats and loads of flavour.
Saturday night in our house was burger night, and back in the day when we had 5 little kids and probably a friend per kid, we could just go into production mode and make burgers like we were setting up shop. These Simpsonesque sliders are much better served to (vegan) adults on an occasion when you have some time on your hands and you are looking to impress. Perfect to add to your menu if you are having a BBQ and you have that one friend...you know the one! But be assured the non-vegans will help you eat them. They are too technicolour glorious not to be eaten as well as instagrammed, don’t you think?
Budget-friendly, freezer-friendly and perfect for burgers, bowls or wraps, this recipe was originally published in The Weekend Table as part of our Accidentally Vegan chapter, make sure you check it out.
