Ingredients

  • 15 oz Canned chickpeas
  • 0.5 cup Almond flour
  • 1 medium grated Carrot
  • 1 large Egg
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly under cold water to remove excess sodium.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas using a fork or potato masher until a chunky texture is achieved.

Step 3

Add the grated carrot, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper into the mashed chickpeas.

Step 4

Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. If the mixture seems too wet, add a little more almond flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 5

Using your hands, form the mixture into patties about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. You should get around 8 patties.

Step 6

Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the Paleo chickpea patties warm, either on their own or with a side salad or dipping sauce of your choice.
