15 servings

  • 1 cup dry garbanzo beans
  • 1.5 cups fresh cilantro, stems removed
  • 0.75 cup fresh flat-leafed parsley, stems removed
  • 1 small red onion, quartered
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons chickpea flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Soak chickpeas in a large amount of cool water for 24 hours. Rub the soaked chickpeas with your fingers to help loosen and remove skins. Rinse and drain well. Spread chickpeas on a large clean dish towel to dry.
  • Blend chickpeas, cilantro, parsley, onion, and garlic in a food processor until a rough paste forms. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Add chickpea flour, coriander, cumin, Sriracha, salt, and pepper and mix well. Cover bowl and let mixture rest for 1 hour.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Add baking powder and baking soda to the chickpea mixture. Mix using your hands until just combined. Form 15 equal-sized balls and press slightly to form patties. Spray falafel patties with cooking spray.
  • Place 7 falafel patties in the preheated air fryer and cook for 10 minutes. Transfer cooked falafel to a plate and repeat with remaining 8 falafel, cooking for 10 to 12 minutes.
