To make these fritters, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup of pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup of flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup of chopped onion
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1/2 cup of coconut yogurt


This recipe makes about 12 fritters, which is enough for 4 servings.
To start, combine the chickpeas, pumpkin puree, flour, baking powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Mix well until everything is evenly combined. Add in the parsley, cilantro, onion, garlic, and olive oil, and mix again until everything is evenly distributed.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, use a spoon to scoop out the fritter mixture and drop it into the skillet. Flatten the fritters slightly with the back of the spoon. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
To serve, top the fritters with a dollop of coconut yogurt and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. These fritters are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a delicious blend of spices and herbs. The coconut yogurt adds a creamy and tangy element that perfectly complements the fritters.
