Ingredients:
• 8 Egg Whites
• 1 can (255g)
unsalted cooked and drained Chickpeas
• 1/4 cup (34g)
Oat Flour (gluten-free or regular)
• 1/4 of a Red
Onion (34g)
• 1 fresh Garlic
Clove
• 1 handful of
Fresh Parsley (or more, depending on taste)
• 2 tbsp fresh
Lemon Juice
• 1/2 tbsp Ground
Cumin
• 1/2 tbsp Ground
Coriander
• 1/2 tbsp
Paprika
• 1 tbsp Sea Salt
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190
degrees C).
- In a bowl or mixer, pulse together
the above ingredients; you want to retain some of the batter's texture, so
just pulse
- the mix until the chickpeas are
mushy.
- Shape mixture into balls or fritters
and place them on a baking tray. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
- Turn falafel balls over so they brown
evenly. Bake for another 15 minutes.
- If falafel is thoroughly browned,
take them out of the oven.
- Eat them! They're good dipped in
hummus and also delicious dipped in Greek yogurt with fresh coriander and
onions.
- They're also good inside pita bread,
or alongside a good old-fashioned salad!
