About €0.23 per serving — €0.92 for all 4 servings at typical UK supermarket prices, roughly 304 kcal a serving.
Ingredients
- 200g all-purpose flour
- 600ml water
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Method
- Prepare the Batter: Whisk together chickpea flour, water, salt, and pepper. Let sit for at least 4 hours.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F). Pour olive oil into a round baking dish and heat in the oven. Pour in the batter and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden.
- Serve: Slice and serve hot, optionally with black pepper on top.
- Pro Tips:
- Let the batter rest for at least 2 hours, or overnight in the refrigerator, to ensure the chickpea flour fully hydrates and the flavors meld.
- For a crispy edge, preheat the baking pan with oil in the oven before adding the batter.
