Preparation
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Add chickpeas, red onion, parsley, flour, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper to food processor and blend until smooth.
- Grease a 18x13-inch (46x33-cm) baking sheet with olive oil. Use a spatula to transfer falafel mixture to the pan.
- Using spatula and your hands, form the falafel mixture into a rectangle that is roughly the size of the slider buns.
- Bake falafel for 20-25 minutes or until crispy, flipping halfway through.
- For the avocado hummus, add avocados, chickpeas, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to food processor and blend until chunky.
- For the tahini sauce, whisk together tahini, water, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper in small mixing bowl.
- Keeping slider buns attached, cut them in half lengthwise with a serrated knife. Remove top half and set aside.
- When falafel is done baking, remove from oven and place on top of bottom half of slider buns.
- Top falafel with one layer of avocado hummus, followed by one layer of tomatoes. Drizzle with tahini sauce.
- Cover with top half of slider buns and cut into 12 sliders.
- Enjoy!

It was pretty bland, in my opinion. If I were inclined to make this again, I would definitely add more seasonings.

Because I used flour it made it very dense and kinda doughy, a way to combat that is to use maybe soda pop and baking soda to lighten it up as if it was fried

Good veggie recipe for the parties. I added Olive bruschetta on top of avocado hummus to add more flavors and overcome the dryness.

Agreed that sliders were bland without lots of toppings. Kind of dry too. Would add more seasoning.
