Air Fryer Falafel
Our falafel is full of flavor and super crispy, thanks to the air fryer! Packed with shallot, herbs, and spices, it’s as delicious stuffed in a pita with hummus and vegetables as it is on top of a salad or grain bowl.
Instructions
- 1
In a food processor, pulse together the chickpeas, shallot, garlic, parsley, cilantro, scallions, salt, cumin, and paprika to combine. Add the flour and baking powder and pulse until just combined and smooth.
- 2
Use a 1-inch ice cream scoop to scoop out falafel balls onto a cutting board or plate.
- 3
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Spray the basket with nonstick spray.
- 4
Working in batches, arrange the falafel in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 7 minutes. Flip the falafel over and continue cooking for another 7 minutes, until golden brown on the other side. Repeat with the remaining falafel.
- 5
Serve the falafel with pita, hummus, tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions.

Enjoy!
