In a medium bowl, mash the rinsed and drained chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down but with some texture remaining.

Stir in the finely chopped dried apricots, tahini, lemon juice, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground turmeric, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix well until thoroughly combined.

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If the mixture seems too dry, add another teaspoon of lemon juice or a tiny splash of water.

Form the mixture into small, bite-sized balls or flatten into small patties. You should get about 8-10 bites.

Arrange the Mrouzia Spiced Chickpea and Apricot Bites on a serving platter.
