Instructions
- 1
Spread the drained black beans on a baking sheet in a single layer and pat dry with paper towels. Let them air-dry for 10 minutes — the drier the beans, the better the patties will hold together and crust.

Make the white bean spread: combine the cannellini beans, lemon juice, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1/4 tsp salt in a small food processor or blender. Process until smooth and spreadable, about 1 minute. Taste and adjust salt. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
