In a food processor, add black beans, onion, cumin, oregano, smoked paprika, 1/4 cup Califia Farms Oat Barista Blend, 1/4 bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Pulse until well combined. Transfer filling to a bowl and place in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Remove the filling from the fridge. Form logs from the mixture. Repeat until you have all the croquettes done. Set aside.
In a bowl, add the rest of the Califia Farms Oat Barista Blend. In another bowl, add the rest of the bread crumbs. Dip each croquette in the oat milk and then coat in bread crumbs.
To make the croquettes on the stove
In a saucepan, heat enough avocado oil to cover the croquettes completely. Fry each croquette until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove croquette from oil and drain on paper towel lined plates.
To bake the croquettes in the oven
Preheat the oven at 425 degrees F. Bake on a parchment lined baking sheet for 20 minutes until cooked through/crispy.
To fry the croquettes in the air fryer
Preheat the air fryer at 400 degrees F. Spray croquettes with cooking spray. Cook for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
