Place beans on the top rack and vegetables on the bottom rack of the oven. Bake beans for 15 minutes and vegetables for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender. Allow to cool for 10 minutes after removing from oven.

Transfer beans and roasted vegetables to a food processor. Add oats, paprika, coriander, fennel seeds, cumin, crumbled bouillon cube, and tamari. Pulse until well combined, scraping down sides as needed.
