This crisp baked falafel recipe is so easy to make and tastes inconceivable! Serve your falafel in pita sandwiches or salads. Gluten-free.

Crispy falafel: Middle Eastern dish made from chickpeas, onions, garlic, herbs, and spices. Crunchy outside, soft inside. Served with tahini sauce, hummus, and salad. Rich in protein, and fiber, gluten-free, and vegan-friendly. Raise your hand if you love falafel! I’ve gone back into the libraries to punctuate my all-time favorite manual falafel recipe. Making falafel at home can be tricky, but this recipe is easy.

Six reasons to love this healthy Crispy falafel recipe:

1. These falafels are golden brown and crisp on the outside. The inwards are tender, succulent, and full of fresh sauces.

2. They’re ignited rather than fried, so they contain significantly lower fat than fried falafel. And your house won’t smell like fried food for days. Winning!

3. Once your chickpeas are sufficiently soaked, the falafel admixture comes together in no time. However, they’ll come together indeed briskly, If you have someone to help shape the galettes.

4. These falafels are gluten-free and vegan, so they’re a great party appetizer.

5. These falafels indurate well, so they’re a fantastic protein-rich option to keep on hand for unborn salads and pita sandwiches.

6. On that note, this recipe is fluently doubled! See recipe notes.

How to Make the Best Homemade Crispy Falafel

Bake it, don’t fry it. I say this because frying requires a lot of sizzling hot oil painting, and that scares me. I also don’t have a good articulation over my roaster to take the fried food smell far, far down. Plus, you can use a reasonable quantum of heart-healthy olive oil painting in the ignited interpretation. Coat your rimmed baking distance with olive oil painting. That way, you get a fried effect in the roaster, and you don’t have to brush the little falafels collectively with olive oil painting. Winning!
Use dried chickpeas, not canned. Canned chickpeas don’t work for falafel. They’re far too wet. However, you’ll end up with sad falafel flapjacks, If you try to use mimetic chickpeas rather than dried and soaked chickpeas. Some fashions try to offset the stuffiness by adding flour, which significantly dulls the flavor and makes the texture more pasty. Soak the dried chickpeas for at least four hours. However, you’ll have unpalatably tough pieces of chickpea in your falafel, If your chickpeas aren’t sufficiently softened. There’s just no workaround then. Choose your dried chickpeas wisely, Try to buy your dried chickpeas from a store with a high development, because old chickpeas need longer to soften. However, pick the chickpeas that are the lowest, since they’ll soften briskly If you have options.

Falafel Serving Suggestions

Serve falafel as an appetizer, wrap it into a pita sandwich, or add it to salad for a protein-rich topping. Falafel goes great with any of the following constituents:

• Pita bread, warmed or toasted (tear it up for pita “croutons”)
• Fresh greens (such as spring greens or chopped romaine)
• Tomatoes, sliced
• Bell peppers, cut into strips
• Cucumber, thinly sliced
• Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
• Raw red onion, thinly sliced, or quick-pickled onions
• Feta cheese, crumbled
• Sauce: Something creamy like tzatziki, hummus, or tahini sauce, and maybe a spicy sauce like zhoug or shatta, too

Here’s a tahini dressing recipe that goes great with this falafel, too:

• 1/4 cup tahini
• Zest and juice of 1 small lemon
• 1 tablespoon white miso
• 2 garlic cloves, pressed
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• Pinch of cayenne
• 1/3 cup water

In a small food processor, combine all of the ingredients and blend well. You can also whisk the ingredients together by hand in a small bowl, just note that you’ll need to chop the fresh herbs and zest more finely than you would if you were using a food processor.

Recommended equipment: I love my 11-cup food processor (affiliate link).
