Vegan Baked Falafel

Cultural Context

Falafel is a beloved street food originating from the Middle East, often made with ground chickpeas and spices. Traditionally served in pita bread with fresh vegetables and sauces, falafel has become a symbol of Middle Eastern cuisine worldwide. The vegan baked version offers a healthier twist, retaining the dish's signature flavor while being lower in fat than its fried counterpart.

flour

🥗Healthier: chickpea flour

💰Cheaper: oats

Chickpea flour adds protein and fiber, while oats are often less expensive.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: sunflower oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point, and sunflower oil is more budget-friendly.

1

Add drained and rinsed chickpeas, onion, garlic, fresh parsley, and cilantro to a food processor.

2

Add oat flour, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, ground coriander, baking soda, and salt to the processor.
