Sweet Garbanzo Fritters

• 6 ounces cooked garbanzo beans, freshly made or canned,rinsed and drained
• 2 eggs, separated
• 14 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon anise-flavored liqueur (see my recipe for this if you do not have it)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil or 1 tablespoon safflower oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 13 cup sugar
• 14 teaspoon cinnamon
• 18 teaspoon cardamom powder
• 18 teaspoon nutmeg
• 13 teaspoon lemon, rind of, grated
• 7 tablespoons flour
• vegetable oil, for frying
• powdered sugar, for dusting

1. Take our your food processor and process your garbanzo beans.
2. After you have processed them, add the egg yolks in, along with salt, anise liquor, and coconut oil, processing until the mixture is smooth.
3. Then proceed by adding the sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, grated lemon peel, and flour, pulsing until blended.
4. Next, in a large bowl, beat the whites of the eggs until stiff, but not to the point that they are"dry".
5. Fold the Garbanzo mixture into the whites.
6. In a deep fryer, or in 2 inches of oil in a dep skillet, heat oil thoroughly.
7. Once oil is nice and hot, drop the chickpea mixture into the oil by the tablespoon full and allow to fry until golden brown all over.
8. Allow the fritters to drain on paper towels, and serve hot/warm dusted with powdered sugar.
9. These are good served right after making them; they do not save.
10. ENJOY!
