Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cups medium onion, shredded
- 1 cups zucchini, shredded
- 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the shredded onion and zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs then stir in the almond flour, salt, pepper, and cumin until a crumbly mixture forms.
- Add the ground turkey to the bowl and gently fold in the vegetable mixture, being careful not to over‑mix.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4‑inch thick.
- Place the patties on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with a little oil.
- Bake for 20‑25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165 °F (74 °C).
- Transfer the burgers to a plate and let rest for 2 minutes to retain juices.
- Serve on toasted whole‑grain buns or lettuce wraps with your favorite toppings such as avocado, tomato, and a dollop of Greek yogurt sauce.
Notes
If you prefer a gluten‑free version, ensure the almond flour is certified gluten‑free and serve the burgers on lettuce leaves instead of buns.
