Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly and place them in a food processor.
Add chopped onion, parsley, garlic cloves, cumin powder, coriander powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to the processor with the chickpeas.
Pulse the mixture until it reaches a coarse texture. Be careful not to over-process; the mixture should not become a paste.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add oat flour and water. Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties about 2 to 3 inches in diameter and place them on a plate or tray.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the chickpea patties to the skillet.
Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Serve the savory chickpea patties warm, accompanied by your favorite sides or condiments.
