Found the burgers to be a little moist and unable to stay together as a burger. But I processed 1 cup of old fashioned oatmeal as a flour and added it a little at a time about a third cup not too much or it will be dry. Very Very Good

This is delicious! We are trying to cut back on the red meat, and this was a great hamburger alternative.
