Overview

Keto Falafels are a low-carb take on the classic Middle Eastern dish. Made without chickpeas, these falafels still deliver a crunchy exterior and flavorful interior, perfect for dipping or enjoying in a keto-friendly wrap.

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tbsp flaxseed meal
• 1/2 cup chopped parsley
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• 1/4 cup chopped mint
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp coriander
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2-3 tbsp water or as needed
• Coconut oil or olive oil for frying

Preparation

• 1. In a food processor, combine almond flour, flaxseed meal, herbs, garlic, and spices. Blend until you achieve a coarse mixture.
• 2. Add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the mixture holds together.
• 3. Shape the mixture into small balls or patties.
• 4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry falafels until they are golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes per side.
• 5. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with a side of Tahini or keto-friendly tzatziki sauce.
• Include them in a keto salad or wrap with low-carb tortillas.
