Chickpea Pancakes image

A recipe for savoury pancakes - ideal for vegetarians and those who can't have wheat flour. Haven't tried yet, but goes well as a brunch dish with shredded chicken, bean sprouts, mushrooms and spinach apparently..From Dominique Rizzo, a Brisbane organic chef. TIP; test the 1st pancake and if it's a bit dry, add some more oil to the batter.

I love how easy these pancakes were to make. I also love that they're a healthier alternative to traditional pancakes. I'll definitely be making these again!

These pancakes were a disaster. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't taste good at all. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of chickpeas, but these pancakes were actually pretty good. The texture was nice and the flavor wasn't too overpowering.

These pancakes were a hit with the whole family! Even my picky kids loved them. They're a great way to sneak some extra protein into their diet.

These pancakes were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These chickpea pancakes turned out amazing! They were so easy to make and had the perfect amount of fluffiness. I loved the hint of chickpea flavor that came through.
