INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked chickpeas (164g)
180g firm tofu
2 tbsp tahini (30g)
1/4 cup diced onion (40g)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped (30g)
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon juice (for sauce)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp mixed cumin & coriander
Olive oil spray
2 tbsp water
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray lightly with olive oil.
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas and crumbled firm tofu. Pulse until coarsely blended, leaving some texture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the diced onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, baking powder, and spices. Mix until evenly combined.
Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties or balls, ensuring a uniform size for even baking.
Place the patties on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the tops with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the falafel are crisp and golden on the outside.
While the falafel bakes, prepare the lemon-herb tahini sauce by whisking together tahini, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and water until smooth. Adjust the consistency with a little more water if needed.
Remove the falafel from the oven and let cool slightly. Drizzle with the tahini sauce or serve on the side for dipping.
Enjoy your crispy baked falafel as a satisfying meal any time of day!
