Ingredients

• 1 can (15 oz) Canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1 large Carrot, grated
• 1 medium Zucchini, grated
• 0.5 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 6 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs (gluten-free if desired)
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water. Stir well and set aside for about 5 minutes to thicken.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with some chunks remaining.

Step 4

Add the grated carrot, grated zucchini, chopped onion, minced garlic, thickened flaxseed mixture, nutritional yeast, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and pepper to the mashed chickpeas. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

Step 5

Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, pressing firmly to ensure they hold together.

Step 6

Place the breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish. Dip each patty into the breadcrumbs, turning to coat completely.

Step 7

Heat half of the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 8

Add the patties in batches and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Add more oil as needed for the remaining patties.

Step 9

Transfer the patties to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until heated through.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 11

Serve the patties warm as a main dish or in sandwiches, or wrap them with your favorite vegan toppings.
