We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Mix the flax seed with the water and let sit.

  • Step 2: This makes the egg substitute and you will see it turn into a similar consistency after 10 minutes.

  • Step 3: Preheat the oven to 450F.

  • Step 4: Mix the oats in the food processor and set aside.

  • Step 5: Add the drained and washed chickpeas + black beans into a food processor and blend.

  • Step 6: Slowly add some water but only enough to get it into a paste.

  • Step 7: Add the herbs and onion to the blender.

  • Step 8: Now move the paste into a mixing bowl and add the flaxseed egg and start with 1/2 cup ground oats.

  • Step 9: If the mix is very sticky add more ground oats and stir until you are able to form the balls.

  • Step 10: Form either 10 large balls, or 15-20 smaller ones.

  • Step 11: Move into the oven for 15 minutes.

  • Step 12: Smaller balls probably need only 10 minutes.
