Ingredients
  

  • 1 No-Salt-Added Chickpeas
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • ½ cup sweet onion chopped
  • 2 cups fresh parsley chopped (I use both leaves and stems)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray as desired.
  • Add all the falafel ingredients to a food processor and pulse for about 15 to 30 seconds to combine. The falafel dough should be chunky still.
  • Divide dough into 12 sections and roll each into a ball, then smooshing down with your palms to form flat patties.
  • Place patties on the parchment paper and bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Remove from oven and enjoy on a pita or wrap, with hummus, pickled veggies, and loads of sprouts!
