Combine sunflower seeds and walnuts in the work bowl of a food processor and process until finely ground. Turn out into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Pulse chop onion in the food processor until diced. Transfer to a skillet, add water and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Return to processor.
Measure 1/2 C. (120 ml) of the rinsed and drained black beans, and add them to nuts in mixing bowl. Put remainder into processor with onions.
Add remaining ingredients to processor and process until well blended. Add to bowl with ground nuts and mix well.
Lightly oil a baking pan and drop patties from a large spoon. Flatten slightly so they will bake evenly.
Bake at 400 F (Gas Mark 6) for 12 minutes. Turn the patties with a metal spatula and bake 10 minutes longer. Makes 9 to10 very tasty patties.
*1 1/2 one-pound (450 g) cans of drained black beans will give you the 2 cups (480 ml) needed
