Smoky Portobello Veggie Burgers (Vegan+GF)

So did you know you could turn a plain old mushroom into something nearly unrecognizable? Plus, they look pretty freakin’ delicious with all the toppings.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings 2 servings

Ingredients

The Burgers:

  • 2 large portobello mushroom caps
  • 2 tablespoons sugar free ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons liquid smoke
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari if gluten free
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup

The Other Stuff:

  • 2 sesame buns gluten free if needed
  • lettuce leaves
  • sliced tomato
  • sliced onion
  • Chao cheese or any dairy-free brand you prefer
  • mustard ketchup, pickles.......

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 C) and line a baking tray with foil.

Stir together the sauce ingredients for the mushrooms and either dip them into it and turn to coat, or brush it onto them. Place the sauce coated mushrooms on a tray to bake and remove the stems to lay separate (I don't throw them away because they are great on the side.).

Bake for 25 to 35 minutes until the mushrooms have shrunken and darkened a lot. Remove from oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes. Then assemble your "burgers" on the buns with any other toppings that you like and enjoy!
