Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly under cold water.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until slightly chunky.
Add the almond flour, chopped onion, parsley, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, sea salt, and black pepper to the mashed chickpeas, and mix until well combined.
Crack the egg into the chickpea mixture and mix until the ingredients are well incorporated into a dough-like consistency.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into round patties.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them. You may need to cook them in two batches, depending on the size of your skillet.
Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the savory chickpea patties warm, optionally with a side salad or your favorite paleo-friendly dipping sauce.
