avocado oil or oil of your choice for frying (325 degrees)
1/2 large white onion
3 tablespoons of fresh parsley
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro
1 cup hemp hearts
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1.5 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon flax seed meal combined with 2 teaspoons water
Add your onion, parsley, cilantro, hemp hearts spices, and flax/water mixture into the food processor and process until the mixture can be pinched together.
Form your falafel into patties. This recipe makes about 8, depending on how big you make them.
Heat oil to 325 degrees
Fry falafel for about a minute making sure they brown evenly on all sides.
Great in a low carb tortilla or in a salad or on their own for dipping. Tzatziki sauce is great with these, of course.

Thank you! Are those sesame seeds in the pic? Maybe used as garnish?
We made these tonight with dinner. They were delicious! Instead of the flaxseed and water, we subbed 2T egg whites. Cooked them in a mini waffle iron. OMG! We will add some salt next time, but these were excellent!
I’ve heard a lot of good about hemp hearts. Maybe I should try them o-
