INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups Cooked Chickpeas
1/4 cup Chickpea Flour
1/4 cup Chopped Yellow Onion
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Fresh Parsley
1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Coriander
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
2 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Water
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment with olive oil cooking spray.
In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, chickpea flour, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cilantro, ground cumin, ground coriander, and baking powder. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely blended but not completely smooth; keep some texture for better crunch.
Scoop the mixture into small patties or balls (about 3-4 tablespoons each) and place them evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Gently press to shape if forming patties.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through so both sides become crisp and golden brown.
While the falafel bakes, prepare the lemon tahini drizzle by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth and pourable.
Once baked, remove the falafel from the oven and let them cool slightly before drizzling the lemon tahini sauce over the top or serving it on the side as a dip.
