Step 1

In a food processor, pulse together the chickpeas, shallot, garlic, parsley, cilantro, scallions, salt, cumin, and paprika to combine. Add the flour and baking powder and pulse until just combined and smooth.

Step 2

Use a 1-inch ice cream scoop to scoop out falafel balls onto a cutting board or plate.

Step 3

Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Spray the basket with nonstick spray.

Step 4

Working in batches, arrange the falafel in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 7 minutes. Flip the falafel over and continue cooking for another 7 minutes, until golden brown on the other side. Repeat with the remaining falafel.

Step 5

Serve the falafel with pita, hummus, tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions.

Step 6

Enjoy!
