Tips:

Choose the right sweet potatoes: Select firm and brightly colored sweet potatoes for the best flavor and texture.
Cook the sweet potatoes properly: Baking or roasting the sweet potatoes until they are tender is essential for creating a smooth and cohesive burger patty.
Use a food processor to create a smooth mixture: This will help to ensure that the burger patties are evenly textured and hold together well.
Add moisture to the burger mixture: If the mixture seems too dry, add a little bit of vegetable broth or water until it reaches the desired consistency.
Don't overmix the burger mixture: Overmixing can make the burgers tough, so mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Shape the burger patties gently: Handle the burger mixture gently when shaping the patties to prevent them from becoming too dense.
Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help to prevent the burgers from burning on the outside and ensure that they are cooked through in the center.
Serve the burgers immediately: Veggie burgers are best served hot off the grill or pan.
