Calories: 99, Protein: 9.3g, Fat: 1.4g, Carbs: 13.1g
Ingredients
600g (About 4 cups) Frozen peas
*60g (1/2 cup) Vital Wheat gluten flour (See Recipe notes)
*60g (1/2 cup) chick pea flour (See Recipe notes)
1/3 cup chopped cilantro or parsley
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp chili flakes (+/-)
3 tbsp (about 15g) Nutritional yeast
Salt Per taste
1/4 cup water to help with blending
10-12 sprays of Avocado Oil for air frying
Directions
- Cook the peas
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add frozen peas and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until soft. Drain well and set aside. - Mash the peas
Transfer the cooked peas to a large bowl. Mash using a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down. You may also use a food processor for a finer texture. - Mix the ingredients
Add all remaining ingredients except the water to the mashed peas. Using clean hands or gloves, mix until combined. - Form the dough
Add ¼ cup water and mix again until a dough forms. The mixture should be slightly sticky but not overly wet or dry - Shape the patties
Divide the mixture and form into patties. Gently flatten each one with your hands. - Cook the patties
Place patties in an air fryer basket. Lightly spray with avocado oil.
Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes, flipping halfway if desired.
(You can also bake or pan-fry, but pan-frying requires more oil and time.) - Serve & enjoy
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce. I paired mine with a yogurt tahini dressing. (Tzatziki sauce works too!) Enjoy as a savory breakfast, snack, or appetizer.

Notes
- Store cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
To freeze, place cooled patties on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months.
Reheat in the air fryer or oven at 350°F until warmed through for best texture. - *If you want gluten free version of these patties – Omit gluten flour and use another 1/2 cup chick pea flour. But keep in mind this will change Macro/protein content of the patties.
- *If you don’t want to use chick pea flour – use regular flour for the same quantity. But keep in mind this will change Macro/protein content of the patties.

These look great but messy to make, so would they work to mix in a food processor?

Could I mix these up in a food processor instead?
