Air-fried chickpea pasta balls filled with molten grass-fed cheddar and coated in a golden panko crust.
INGREDIENTS
1 oz chickpea elbow pasta
0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.5 oz grass-fed sharp cheddar cheese
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 large egg
0.13 cup whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp avocado oil spray
PREPARATION
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water until al dente, then drain well.
Combine the warm pasta with Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes until firm enough to handle.
Scoop the chilled mixture and roll into 6 even balls.
Whisk the egg in one bowl and place panko breadcrumbs in another.
Coat each ball in the egg wash followed by the panko breadcrumbs.
Lightly spray the balls with avocado oil and air-fry at 375°F for 10 minutes until the exterior is golden and crunchy.
