- 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
- ¼ cup chopped onion

- 2½ teaspoons salt-free garlic pepper spice blend
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Steps
- Pulse garbanzo beans, onion, 3 Tbsp. flour, garlic pepper spice blend, cumin, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until coarse puree forms. Add chopped Italian parsley; process just to blend. Generously sprinkle plate with all-purpose flour. Roll level tablespoonfuls garbanzo bean mixture into balls; transfer balls to plate. Roll falafel in flour to coat generously; flatten balls slightly.
