Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- ¼ cup yellow or green onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- ¼ cup cilantro
- ¼ cup parsley
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- In the food processor, combine chickpeas, onion, garlic, cilantro, and spices (cumin, salt, cardamom, and pepper) and blitz until the mixture is thickly pureed.
- Add the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder and pulse a few times until combined.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and the lemon juice and process for a minute or so. If the mixture seems very dry, add the remaining olive oil.
- By hand, add the egg and the sesame seeds into the mixture and mix until combined.
- Preheat your waffle iron, and add the batter per your waffle iron instructions. This recipe made four ½ cup waffles.
Notes
- This recipe will make four half-cup waffles.
- While making falafel requires dried chickpeas, these falafel waffles are best made with canned.
- Please note: these fawaffles won't be as crispy as deep fried falafel.
