Chickpea Scramble with Zucchini and ThymeList Item 1
Ingredients
1/2 cup chickpea flour
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1/4 cup onions, chopped
1/2 cup zucchini, diced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 teaspoon olive oil
Pinch of himalayan salt and pepper
Instructions
Place the chickpea flour and vegetable broth in a glass bowl and whisk until smooth.
Heat a medium-sized pan over medium-high heat and add oil.
Once warm, add the onions and sauté until translucent.
Then add the zucchini and cook about 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to brown.
As the vegetables cook, season with salt, pepper, and thyme and stir until incorporated.
Pour the chickpea flour-broth mixture over the vegetables and stir with a wooden spoon.
It will begin to form clumps.
Mix and break up as it continues to cook, for about 5-10 minutes.
Once it's no longer wet and the raw flour taste has been cooked off, your scramble is complete.

Jumbo Chickpea PancakeList Item 2
Ingredients
1 green onion, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1/4 cup finely chopped red pepper
1/2 cup chickpea flour (also known as garbanzo flour or besan)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
pinch red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons water
For serving: salsa, avocado, hummus
Directions
Prepare the vegetables and set aside. Preheat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, garlic powder, salt, pepper, baking powder, and optional red pepper flakes.
Add the water and whisk well until no clumps remain.
I like to whisk it for a good 15 seconds to create lots of air bubbles in the batter.
Stir in the chopped vegetables.
When the skillet is pre-heated (a drop of water should sizzle on the pan), spray it liberally with olive oil or other non stick cooking spray.
Pour on all of the batter (if making 1 large pancake) and quickly spread it out all over the pan.
Cook for about 5-6 minutes on one side (timing will depend on how hot your pan is), until you can easily slide a pancake flipper/spatula under the pancake and it's firm enough not to break when flipping.
Flip pancake carefully and cook for another 5 minutes, until lightly golden.
Be sure to cook for enough time as this pancake takes much longer to cook compared to regular pancakes.
Serve on a large plate and top with your desired toppings.
Leftovers can be wrapped up and placed in the fridge.
Reheat on a skillet until warmed throughout.
