Mix all ingredients in the food processor for about 2 minutes until a soft dough forms.

Grease baking pans with butter or cooking spray.

Use an ice cream scoop or your hands to form small balls from the dough and place them on the greased baking pans.

Bake in an air fryer at 375°F or in a convection oven at 400°F for 10 minutes.

For a basil version, add 2 cups of fresh basil leaves and 1 extra egg to the mixture and follow the same steps for preparation and baking.
