Soak and Blend Ingredients
In a bowl, soak the canned chickpeas in water for about 1-2 hours. Drain and rinse. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, parsley, cilantro, garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and flour. Pulse until a coarse mixture forms, scraping down the sides as needed.
