  • Total Time: 55 mins
  • Yield: 25-30 balls 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 300 g/10.5 oz grated carrots (about 3 cups)
  • 100 g/3.5 oz oats (about 1 cup)
  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste or ketchup
  • 1.5 tsp paprika powder
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 23 tbsp bread crumbs (use GF if needed)
  • salt, pepper


Instructions

  1. Start by preparing flax egg: in a small bowl whisk together ground flaxseeds with about 8 tablespoons of water. Let rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Add flax egg and rest of the ingredients to a large bowl and mix well together. If you prefer a smoother finish, you can also add the mixture to a food processor and pulse a few times. Adjust seasoning if needed, then cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile preheat the oven to 200°C/400ºF. Form mixture into small balls with wet hands (use about 2 tablespoons of mixture per ball), and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  4. Alternatively, fry them in hot oil until crispy, about 3-3 minutes each side. Enjoy!
