1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Lightly spray the parchment paper with olive oil or canola oil.
4. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped, with 2 tablespoons of water. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until softened. Drain any excess water.

10. Lightly spray both sides of each patty with olive oil or canola oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
11. Bake for 12 minutes.
12. Flip the patties and bake for an additional 9 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
