- . 1 cup breadcrumbs or any crushed cracker -- (separated 1/2 cup + 1/2 cup for coating)

Direcciones
- . Prepare a steamer to receive the peeled and cubed eggplant. Once steamed to fork tender (about 10 minutes) let it rest to cool to room temperature. Then, place the eggplant in a fine sieve to squash lightly and extract any remaining water.
- . In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs as well as the Dijon and all seasoning. Add the cooked eggplant and lightly mash it together with this egg mix.
- . Finish by adding the cheese, nuts and only the 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs. Mix completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes or up to two days ahead.
- . > ASSEMBLY and BAKING: Pre-heat the oven to 375F. Position rack to the 2nd level from the bottom. Prepare a large, parchment lined baking sheet.
- . With the aid of an ice-cream scoop, make patted, packed portions of mix. Release balls onto a platter. Then lightly form thick, burger patties. Note: the patties will feel quite wet...it's fine.
- . With the remaining breadcrumb, coat each pattie lightly and very gently tap off the excess. Place them on the baking sheet.
- . Bake patties for 20 minutes and then take them out to gently flip them for another 10 minute baking time.
