INGREDIENTS
1 cup canned chickpeas (drained)
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 medium green onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1 tbsp tahini
1/3 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, egg whites, parsley, green onion, and garlic. Pulse until roughly blended but still with some texture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Form the mixture into small patties (about 3-4 patties), placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the patties for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the edges.
While the falafel bakes, prepare the creamy tahini sauce by whisking together tahini, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a small splash of water if needed to thin the sauce.
Once the falafel are done, serve them warm with a generous drizzle of the creamy tahini sauce. Enjoy as a fulfilling meal option any time of day.
