Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Cut @sweet potatoes{2%unit} into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim and thinly slice @scallions{4%unit}, separating whites from greens. Finely chop @cilantro{1%cup}. Trim @mini cucumber{1%unit}. Using a peeler, shave cucumber lengthwise into ribbons until you reach the seedy core; discard core. On one side of a #baking sheet{}, toss sweet potatoes with a drizzle of @olive oil{2%tbsp}, @Za'atar Spice{1%tsp}, @salt{1%tsp}, and @black pepper{1%tsp}. Set aside.

Drain and rinse @chickpeas{15%oz}; pat dry with paper towels. Place chickpeas and remaining oil in a #large bowl{}. Using an immersion blender or standard blender, blend until almost smooth.

To the bowl with chickpeas, mix in scallion whites, cilantro, @Turkish Spice Blend{1%packet}, and @flour{2%tbsp}. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Divide chickpea mixture into two mounds; gently flatten into patties.

Lightly drizzle oil on the empty side of the baking sheet with sweet potatoes; add patties. Bake on top rack for ~{10%minutes}. Carefully flip patties and return to top rack until patties are lightly golden and sweet potatoes are browned and tender, ~{10%minutes} more.

While patties and sweet potatoes bake, halve and toast @brioche buns{2%unit} until golden. In a #small bowl{}, combine cucumber, scallion greens, a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.

Fill buns with patties, @Dairy-Free Tzatziki Sauce{3%tbsp}, and cucumber ribbons. Divide burgers and sweet potato wedges between plates and serve.
