No-Chicken Nuggets

Servings 8 nuggets
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 can chickpeas
  • 1 carrot
  • 30 g oats
  • 10 g nutritional yeast (30g Parmesan cheese)

Spice mix

  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 1 tsp Italian spices
  • 1 tsp paprika

Coating

  • 15 g breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp garlic

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the breadcrumb by mixing the coating ingredients on a plate, set aside for now.
  • Add chickpeas, carrot, oats, nutritional yeast and spices into the large bowl of Magimix food processor and blitz until you form a uniform dough.
  • Take a big spoon of the mixture and shape into nuggets.
  • A little hack is to add a drizzle of oil to the palms of your hands; this makes it much easier to shape them into nuggets.
  • Roll the nuggets into the breadcrumb mix to cover completely.
  • Transfer to a baking tray or air fryer, with baking paper on in, and bake.
    Air fryer: bake at 180C for 25-30 mins (no need to pre-heat)
    Oven: bake for 40 mins at 180C.
  • Enjoy with your favourite sauce.
