How to make Black Bean and Corn Balls Recipe - Barone Meatball Company Recipe From Stephen Dewey Raleigh/Durham, Nc

Makes About 15 Meatballs

Ingredients:
2 (15-oz [420g]) cans black beans
1/2 cup (75g) corn kernels
1 egg
1 cup (121g) bread crumbs
1 1/2 tsp (4g) cumin
1 tbsp (7g) chili powder
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 jalapeño, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray

Method:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C, or gas mark 6). Drain the liquid from the cans of black beans. Mash up the black beans and mix in the corn, egg, bread crumbs, cumin, chili powder, garlic, jalapeño, onion and salt and pepper. Mix well.

Coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Roll the mixture into 1-inch (2.5cm) diameter balls and place on the cookie sheet. Coat the tops of the balls with cooking spray.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping the balls halfway through. The balls will get a little darker and become crispy on the outside.
