Added extra seasoning, as the other reviews suggested and they turned out great. Weren't as crunchy as I thought they should be, even though they were browned when I took them out of the oven. When I reheated them in the oven the next day, they were a bit more what I expected the first night, as far as the crunch. My husband and son loved them, too!

Awesome! These are as flavorful as falafel in Israel. I made these for the second time tonight for dinner. Last time I had a problem with my chickpeas not mashing well enough (I couldn't get the chunks to go away no matter how long I kept mashing). This time, I started out using my Pampered Chef Food Chopper to get them finely diced. Then I mashed them. Much better consistency this time. I tried baking them, as someone else suggested. Definitely helped with the fat content and hardly affected the taste! Thanks for sharing your recipe.
