Chickpea Pancakes

These quick and easy fritters are a great way to get your veggies in. Topped with eggs, sauteed vegetables or yoghurt, they make a great basis for bre...akfast, lunch or dinner. They also freeze well. During testing, we froze several batches and ate them for breakfast in the studio. Rupy said they were ‘like pop-tarts.” We initially laughed at him but then saw his point - they’re an instant, colourful full-of-flavour breakfast. This is a very forgiving recipe. View the vegetable mix-ins provided here as a suggestion and improvise using what you have. Finely sliced spring onions, bell peppers or chopped up, leftover roasted vegetables would all make great additions. Read more These quick and easy fritters are a great way to get your veggies in.

Notes

If you like, fry off a small amount of the batter to check the spices and seasoning before frying them all off.

Freezing Instructions: Freeze in an airtight bag. Place pieces of parchment in between pancakes to prevent sticking. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator and then place in the toaster to freshen up. They can be drier when reheated than when freshly cooked, so we recommend serving with yoghurt, a sauce or some sauteed vegetables.

These were great with the yogurt tahini dressing from the spiced lentil fritters!

I cook a batch, freeze then toast and serve with a dollop of Greek yoghurt and some mango chutney. Yum!

Nice and easy. Agree with Rupi - it's a pop-tart experience! Love the suggestion to cook a little of the batter to test for spice/seasoning - genius!
Thank you!

I loved this recipe. I’m a great fan of chickpea flour pancakes either savoury or sometimes sweet perhaps for breakfast with berries and plain yoghurt. I’ve made enough to make another pancake tomorrow. The different spices used made it such a tasty and nutritious meal. I topped it with smoked salmon, prawns, pasta and some chickpeas. I am really enjoying cooking the recipes in this app and learning a lot about incorporating enough protein, healthy fats and fibre in my diet. πŸ€—

Great flavour, easy to make. It does need a sauce so I made a cashew cream raita - amazing!
