Steps
1Peel the carrots. Cut zucchini lengthwise and scoop out the center with a spoon or a butter knife - this will prevent excess moisture during baking.
2Grate hollowed out zucchini and carrots using a coarse grater and add to a medium size mixing bowl.
3Rinse and drain chickpeas. Mash rinsed chickpeas using a fork or blend with an immersion blender. You can also use a mini food processor. Add mashed chickpeas to the bowl.
4Add oat flour (or ground oats), ground flaxseeds, onion powder, garlic powder and salt.
5Mix to combine until you have a dough-like mix.
6Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) Fan. Split the mix into 16 portions and shape them into 16 nuggets. Arrange the nuggets on top of a baking tray lined with baking paper.
7Bake in the middle of the oven for 15 minutes. Turn the nuggets over and bake for another 5 minutes.
8Transfer to a plate. Serve with a side of yogurt mayo.
