This Oven Baked Falafel is a perfect summer dish, offering a fresh alternative to traditional fried falafel. Perfect for salads, it is simple to prepare and tastes incredibly clean.
1: Add 2 cans of garbanzo beans, 1/4 cup chopped parsley, 1/4 cup cilantro, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 3-4 roughly chopped cloves of garlic, and 1/4 cup roughly chopped red onion into a food processor.
2: Add a pinch of salt, pepper, and cumin.
3: Pulse the mixture 10-12 times until combined but still chunky.
4: Form the mixture into balls; if too sticky, add 1/4 cup of flour and pulse 2 more times.
5: Place the dough balls on a greased cookie sheet and slightly press into patties.
6: Brush the patties with olive oil and bake at 375°F for 30 minutes.
