Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) or set a skillet on the stove over medium heat if pan-frying.
Peel and grate the sweet potato, carrot, and zucchini into a mixing bowl. Finely dice the red bell pepper and thinly slice the green onions, then add them to the bowl.
Place the grated vegetables in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible to prevent soggy patties. Return the squeezed vegetables to the mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed and water to create a flax egg. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
Add the flax egg, garlic powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and chickpea flour to the bowl with the vegetables. Mix thoroughly until the mixture holds together when pressed.
Using your hands, form the mixture into 6 evenly-sized patties. Depending on your desired size, you can adjust the quantity of patties made.
For baking: Lightly grease a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange the patties on the sheet and brush the tops with the remaining olive oil. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and slightly crisp.
For pan-frying: Heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non-stick skillet. Cook each patty for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve warm with your favorite dairy-free dipping sauce, a side salad, or in a sandwich or wrap.
