- Remove foil, flip the patties, put the foil back in place, and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- Let cool while loosely covered before storing or serving to allow the texture to set.

Notes from Craig
The steaming step (covering with foil) is crucial for the texture; without it, the oil-free patties can become too dry or crumbly.
Once cooled, these patties hold their shape well and can even be hand-crumbled into sauces or onto salads.
