I think these chickpea crêpes may very well be my new foodie obsession! They’re light, quick and so easy to make, and their nutrition content is pretty impressive…

Made from chickpea flour and ground flaxseed plus an array of herbs and spices, they’re rich in protein, fibre, iron, folate, zinc and magnesium amongst many other vital nutrients. They taste delicious served with hummus, avocado, a lemon-tahini dressing, smoked paprika and fresh greens, but play around with whatever flavours you like best.

They’re also incredibly easy to make, with a batch made in 10-15 minutes because chickpea flour cooks a little bit quicker than regular pancake batter. Hurrah!

They even taste great for brekkie, for those that prefer a savoury start to the day 🙂

Ingredients
  1. 90g (1 cup) chickpea flour (also called gram flour)
  2. 375ml (1.5 cups) water
  3. 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  4. 1 tsp smoked paprika
  5. 1 tsp ground cumin
  6. 1 tsp ground coriander
  7. pinch of sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  8. virgin coconut oil, to cook
For the Lemon-Tahini Dressing
  1. 1 tbsp light tahini
  2. 1 tbsp warm water
  3. pinch of sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  4. To serve: Hummus, avocado or guacamole, fresh rocket leaves, cherry tomatoes, smoked paprika, chopped fresh parsley or coriander
Instructions
  1. Place the water, chickpea flour, flaxseed, spices and seasoning in a blender and blend until a smooth batter forms.
  2. Add a little extra water if it’s too thick. The thicker the batter is, the thicker the crêpes will be.
  3. Heat up half a teaspoon of coconut oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and gently pour in the batter to the size of pancake you prefer.
  4. Allow it to cook for about 60 seconds, before flipping it over with a spatula to allow it cook for another 60 seconds on the other side. They cook faster than regular pancakes.
  5. Repeat until the batter has been used up.
  6. To make the lemon-tahini dressing, put the tahini into a small bowl and add the warm water and seasoning. Whisk quickly with a fork to form a smooth sauce.
  7. Serve warm with hummus, avocado, lemon-tahini dressing and fresh greens.
Notes
  1. Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
