Gluten Free Baked Falafel


No: eggs, corn, gluten, soy, dairy

Preheat oven to 375F

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Grind in a food processor or mash with a fork to the consistency of a crumbly, slightly chunky paste:
1 can (15 oz) garbanzo beans, drained

Mix together:
mashed garbanzo beans
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/4-1/2 small onion, finely minced
2 cloves garlic, pressed or finely minced
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, minced
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp pepper, or to taste
1 Tbsp potato starch
1 Tbsp mung bean or other bean flour or starch
1/2 tsp baking powder

Roll into slightly flattened 1-1/2 inch balls and place on parchment. I got 16 out of this recipe. Bake for 10 minutes, turn over, and bake another 10 minutes. They will not be very browned; brush with olive oil and broil each side a few minutes if you like more color.
