Instructions
Cook sweet potato in microwave for 5 minutes, or until soft and tender (be sure to use a fork to poke a few holes in it first, to prevent explosions! I also like to wrap the sweet potato in a damp paper towel to keep it moist.)
Drain and rinse a can of garbanzo bans. Pulse in a food processor or chopper a few times, until chopped but still textures.
Mash sweet potato into chopped beans. Stir in flax seeds, adobo sauce, and spices.
Form into 4 patties. (If you're making in advance, you can make the patties and refrigerate covered up to 24 hours.)
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with nonstick spray.
Cook the patties 7-8 minutes on one side, flip, and cook another 7-8 minutes. This is in order to get it crispier - you can certainly cook less, but they may not be as crisp.
