This appetizer is suitable for a gluten-free diet, Whole Food Plant-Based diet, they are also oil-free.The perfect healthy kick, that tastes so yummy!
Ingredients
- 13 oz can/400 g white bean drained and rinsed
- two ribs celery diced
- 1 cup/100g of rolled oats use certified gluten-free if needed
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp of cumin
- 1/2 tsp of dried thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 small shallot chopped
- To serve:
- Avocado Hummus or hummus of choice
- Fresh Parsley
- Sriracha Sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 365F/190°C.
- In a blender or food processor blitz together the beans, cellery, shallot, and spices. Don’t blitz too much, otherwise, it will be mushy. Leave a bit of chunk!
- Transfer it to a bowl and mix it together with the oats.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper, and scoop a spoonful of the mixture into your hand and form the balls or patties, placing them on the baking sheet.If you are not bothered - you can drizzle them with oil, but I kept mine oil-free. They were still very crunchy!
- Bake them for about 40 minutes, turning them at half time, so both sides will be evenly golden. Let them cool for 5 minutes before serving, that will harden them a bit.
- To serve, spread the Avocado Hummus on a bottom of a plate, top with the koftas, drizzle some sriracha and finish with a fresh parasley leaf.
