chickpea-based

Drain the chickpeas, mash them lightly with a fork, and place them in a tall container. Peel and finely dice the onions, peel the garlic and press it through a press, and cut the toast or stale bread into small cubes. Add all ingredients except the flour to the container and blend with a hand blender until smooth. Then add both types of flour and knead with wet hands. Let the dough rest for a while. Spread some flour on a board. With wet hands, form small balls from the dough and place them on the board. Heat some rapeseed oil in a pan and fry the falafel until crispy brown on all sides. Enjoy with sauces, salads, vegetables, or rice.
