Akkra Funfun Crispy Vegetarian Bean Fritters Recipe | CulinaryCreationss

Ingredients

• White Beans: 1 ½ cups dried white beans (like cannellini or navy beans), or 3 cans (15-ounce each) canned white beans, rinsed and drained.
• Call-out Box: Dried vs. Canned White Beans
• Dried: Offers a slightly richer, more "beany" flavor and a firmer texture that holds up beautifully. Requires soaking and cooking.
• Onion: ½ cup chopped yellow onion (about ½ medium onion).
• Salt: 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more for seasoning after frying.
• Cayenne Pepper or Chili: ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or a pinch of your favorite chili powder for a mild kick.
• Optional Herbs: 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for a touch of freshness.
• Egg: 1 large egg, lightly beaten. (For an egg-free option, see our variations section below!)
• Flour: ¼ cup all-purpose flour, plus a little extra if needed. This helps bind the batter just enough without making the fritters heavy.
