Make The Filling
In a medium mixing bowl mix together the pinto beans, bread crumbs and walnuts. Gently smash the pinto beans until chunky but not mushy. This will ensure you leave some texture in your beef patties. In a medium pan over low-medium heat, sauté the diced onions with a Tbsp of neutral cooking oil.
Sauté until the onion is translucent. Add salt and pepper to taste. Next add in the bean-walnut mixture, mixing them in with the sautéed onion. After about 2 -3 minutes add in the seasonings, bread crumbs, and vegetable broth. Stir until combined. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until broth has evaporated then remove from heat.


Bake The Patties

Remove the pastry puff from the fridge. On a clean counter surface, sprinkle with 1-2 tbsp of flour to keep the dough from sticking. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a medium thin layer. Preheat oven to 375°. Spoon about 1-1½ tbsp of the filling into each disc. Dip your finger in water and lightly dab the outside of the disc to help seal the edges. Fold over the disc to create a half circle shape. Use a fork to press down the edges. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat until all discs have been filled. Bake the patties for 20-25 minutes, until lightly browned. Enjoy!

How much walnut? It’s mentioned in the preparation instructions, but isn’t in the ingredient list
Hi there Sandi! Sorry about that. It has been updated… 1/2 cup of chopped (or finely pulsed really) walnuts.
