Here's my easy, foolproof air fryer falafel recipe. It begins with my classic falafel mixture, made from scratch following my earlier tutorial for how to make falafel). For crunchy falafels, use soaked dry chickpeas instead of cooked or canned chickpeas. To cook them in the airfyer, it's best to form the mixture into lightly packed patties so they lay flat in the air fryer basket. Be sure not to crowd the basket. As air fryers do vary, I like to cook the falafel patties in 5 minute increments until the patties are cooked through to a crispy golden brown.
