Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray
2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed
1 medium onion, chopped
2 large egg whites
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
3 cloves roasted garlic, or more to taste
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 ¾ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pinch ground cardamom

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Spray inside of waffle iron with cooking spray.
  • Process garbanzo beans in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add onion, egg whites, cilantro, parsley, garlic, flour, cumin, salt, coriander, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cardamom to garbanzo beans. Pulse, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until falafel batter resembles a coarse meal. Pour batter into a bowl and stir with a fork.
  • Spoon about 1/4 cup falafel batter onto each section of the preheated waffle iron. Cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

These waffled falafel were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices to the batter next time.

I've made waffled falafel before, but this recipe is by far the best. The falafel were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavor was amazing.

The flavor of these falafel was great, but they were a bit too oily for me. I think I would reduce the amount of oil in the batter next time.
