Quinoa burgers not sticking together?

One possible solution is to add an egg to the mixture. However, for non vegan options, a solution is to add more quinoa flour to the mixture. This will help thicken the batter and make it less likely to run off.

For alkaline vegans, the latter would be preferred. Together with sea moss, adding more flour will also help to bind the ingredients together and make a thicker batter.

Be sure to add a little extra of the quinoa flour so that the batter is not too runny. Otherwise, you will end up with a very thin and crispy burger.
