Step 1

Wash prep area and your hands.

Step 2

Crush one third of the cereal into fine crumbs. Rinse and drain pinto beans. Set both aside.

Step 3

In medium bowl combine beans, egg, water, chili powder, salt and the remaining cereal. Use potato masher to coarsely mash mixture. Stir in onion.

Step 4

Use a 1/2 cup measuring cup to portion mixture into 4 burgers. Shape each portion into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.

Step 5

Coat each patty with crushed cereal.

Step 6

Cook patties in a large nonstick skillet coated with 1 teaspoon oil. Cook over medium-high heat for 6-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn patties once while cooking and add oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 7
