• ½ cup (3.5 oz, 100 g) ground hazelnuts (you can also use ground almonds or other ground nuts)
• One 7-oz (200 g) can tomatoes
• One 14-oz (400 g) can beans drained (haricot, kidney or pinto beans are all good for this)

• ¼ tsp. ground cumin (optional)

Method
Pre-heat oven to 375F (190C)
Mix all the ingredients together. Using a food processor or blender, make into a smooth purée. Form into burger shapes (if the mixture is not stiff enough, add more breadcrumbs or a little flour). Bake the burgers on a tray lined with Bakewell or greaseproof paper for 30 to 40 minutes.
