Add chickpea flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast (if using) to the bowl with the veggies.
Stir in the flax egg and mix until everything is well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed; if it’s too wet, add a bit more flour.
Shape the Fritters:
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape it into a patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Cook the Fritters:
Heat a thin layer of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Fry the fritters in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve:
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as vegan sour cream, hummus, or a zesty yogurt dip.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Enjoy as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. Pair with a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Storage: Store leftover fritters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to restore their crispiness. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months—reheat directly from frozen.
Variations:
Spicy Fritters: Add ¼ tsp cayenne pepper or red chili flakes for a spicy kick.
Herbed Fritters: Mix in fresh chopped parsley, cilantro, or dill for added flavor.
Gluten-Free: Use chickpea flour or gluten-free flour to make these fritters gluten-free.
FAQs:
Q: Can I bake these fritters instead of frying?
A: Yes! Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), place the fritters on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and lightly brush them with oil. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Q: What can I use instead of flaxseed?
A: You can use chia seeds in the same ratio, or 2 tbsp of aquafaba (chickpea water) as a binding agent.
Q: Can I use other vegetables?
A: Absolutely! You can substitute or add shredded sweet potato, parsnip, or broccoli for a unique twist.
