Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Spread drained black beans on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
Increase oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). In a food processor, blend walnuts until semi-fine.
Sauté onions, jalapeños, and garlic in avocado oil over medium heat until softened. Drain excess oil.
Combine sautéed vegetables with walnuts and all spices in the food processor. Pulse until just mixed. Add black beans and pulse again until some beans remain chunky.
