Chickpea (Besan) Flour Pancakes

Chickpea (Besan) Flour Pancake is a simple batter made from ground chickpeas (besan) used across South Asian and Mediterranean cuisines for pancakes, fritters and savoury crusts; it's prized for its nutty flavour and gluten-free properties. Nutrition-wise it is a plant-based source of protein, providing about 11g of protein per 100g, and is relatively high in fibre compared with refined grain batters. It offers a good balance of plant protein and fibre with minimal saturated fat, making it a nutritious option for vegetarian cooking and for replacing wheat-based batters in many recipes.
