Add remaining ingredients including 1 T canola oil and flax/water mixture and blend till just mixed. (do not over process, you can finish mixing together with your hands).
With dampened hands, form balls the size of a ping pong ball and then flatten into little patties about 1/4\" thick (thicker if you like).
coat the bottom of a non-stick frying pan with the remaining 1 T canola oil and heat over medium high.
When the oil is hot, cook the patties on each side until they are browned.
transfer to a paper towel to blot off any excess oil before serving.
