Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 T roughly chopped dill
3 T roughly chopped mint
2 bunches Swiss chard, leaves removed from stems and leaves roughly chopped. (stems discarded or re-purposed)
1 cup chickpea flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 eggs
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon zest
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon finely grated garlic
1/2 t ground cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
dash cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
olive oil for pan frying

Steps:

  • 1) In a food processor, pulse dill and mint until finely chopped. Add Swiss chard leaves and pulse until finely chopped. 2) Remove 2/3 of this chard/herb mixture and set aside. 3) To the remaining 1/3 of the chard in the food processor, add the chickpea flour, baking powder, baking soda, eggs and water. Process 1 minute. 4) Scrape chard puree into the bowl with the chard/herb mixture. Add lemon zest, garlic, cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne, salt and pepper. 5) Put a tablespoon of this mixture into a small glass dish and microwave for 30 seconds. Taste and adjust for seasonings. 6) In a large non-stick pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat. When oil is hot, spoon in batter, making 3 to 4 fritters to the batch. Cook about 3 minutes per side, until lightly browned and cooked through. Use more olive oil as needed for remaining fritters.

I love Swiss chard, so I was excited to try these pancakes. They were good, but I thought the filling was a bit too salty.

These pancakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These pancakes were easy to make and turned out great! I used a mix of Swiss chard and spinach, and they were still delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

I've never cooked with Swiss chard before, but these pancakes were a great way to try it! The chard added a subtle bitterness that balanced out the sweetness of the apples. I'll definitely be making these again.

These Swiss chard pancakes were a delightful surprise! The filling was flavorful and the pancakes had a nice crispy texture. I served them with sour cream and applesauce, and they were a hit with my family.
