INGREDIENTS

Fair Shares

6-8 garlic scapes, chopped

I small onion, chopped

2 tbsp Kreta olive oil

Other Ingredients

2 cans chic peas, drained and rinsed

4 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

1 tbsp arrowroot (can use cornstarch as a sub with decent results)

4 tsp ground coriander

2 tsp ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

METHOD

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine all ingredients except oil in a food processor. Scrape down sides and add salt, pepper, and oil. Pulse to combine. Using a small scoop, make balls and place on baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, flip, and bake for 20 minutes more.

Since these are baked and not fried, they are a bit crumbly. They taste best with some hummus, tzatziki, feta etc.

BEVERAGE PAIRINGS

A cold beer will be perfect with this, but I don’t always want the alcohol. WellBeing Brewing to the rescue! Made locally in St Louis, The Victory Wheat is a fave of mine. My husband prefers the Hellraiser Amber. Parker’s Table at Oakland & Yale has a good selection.
