1 red onion
3 cloves garlic (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
1/4 cup cilantro
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil
1.5 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp baking powder

salt (1/4 tsp or so)
2 tbsp tahini
Instructions
1. Blend ingredients. Form into balls.
2. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Flip. Bake 10 minutes more.
Notes: The second time I made it they were way too mushy and couldn't be rolled into balls. I'm not quite sure what I did wrong. The next time I made them, they were fine.
