Falafel in Airfryer. Drip Tray, Pizza Rack, Baking Pan, Crisper Tray & More Stuff them in a pita packed with veggies and tahini sauce for an easy, quick meal! Photography Credit: Nick Evans One of my top vegetarian cravings is falafel!
They are shaped like meatballs, but there's no meat in them. I wanted to create a falafel recipe that was quick and easy, made from canned chickpeas and didn't require frying. I Made It Print Also, making falafel in the air fryer is not only guilt-free but is also a breeze. You can have Falafel in Airfryer using 9 ingredients and 15 steps. Here is how you cook it.

Falafel in Airfryer instructions
- Wash chickpeas thoroughly and soak them in enough water for 4 to 6 hours or overnight. Ensure that you soak chickpeas in enough water as they absorb water and swell after some time..
- Once chickpeas are properly soaked and doubled in size, drain all the water and put them in the food processor..
- Add chopped onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, salt and pepper..
- Grind coarsely everything. It looks like a crumbled dough and is wet also because of onions..
- Take out this crumbled dough in a bowl and add very little chickpeas flour until no longer wet and you can form balls out of it. It should not stick to your hands. If it does, add little more chickpeas flour..
- Keep the dough in the refrigerator for at least half an hour. If possible for an hour or two. This resting period allows the excess starch to seep out and mixture binds together easily, thus becomes easy to form balls..
- Preheat air fryer for 1o minutes at 180 degrees C..
- Mix and make medium sized balls. Brush oil on these balls..
- When the air fryer is preheated, take out the basket of air fryer and keep the balls in it and put the basket back in the air fryer..
- After 7 to 8 minutes. flip the balls so that they are properly cooked from both sides..
- After another 6 to 7 minutes, see that the falafels are properly cooked and golden in colour..
- Serve these with hummus or with pita bread and hummus..
- If grinding in the grinder then it is better to grind chickpeas only. When coarsely grounded then add other ingredients like onion etc..
- In the absence of air fryer, cook these in an appe pan or in the oven or pan fry them. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C for 10 minutes, brush oil on the baking tray and lay falafels on it..
- If you want to deep fry these falafels then add little more chickpeas flour so that they bind properly. Add one falafel in hot oil. If it breaks or falls apart then add little more chickpeas flour..
Just combine all your ingredients in a food processor, form into patties and drop in the air fryer. The countertop appliance is like a mini convection oven, so the falafel will cook up quickly and with way less oil than if you pan-fried them. Serve them with tahini sauce for dipping (see associated recipe). Falafel is traditionally served with hummus, tahini, or hot sauce. We love falafel with tzatziki, a refreshing yogurt cucumber sauce.
