Vegan Whole Chickpea Pancakes

These vegan whole chickpea pancakes don't have the bitter taste as much as you want...

Hi hi, I am welcoming summer with these vegan chickpea pancakes made with apples because I love summer and I do really love chickpeas, but I think I love pancakes more but eat apples every day...getting confused? haha haha

What about you, do you love chickpeas?

What about chickpea pancakes?

And apples? they keeps doctors away...

To be honest, I started really appreciating chickpea pancakes when I started blending the whole chickpeas pancakes with my blender.

I, in the past, had tried chickpea flour pancakes and it has always left me with a taste that I didn't like, besides, my boy too didn't like it.

If you are like us, I got you covered, these chickpea pancakes with apples are just what you need. You don't feel that chickpea flour taste.

I made these chickpea pancakes with buckwheat groats, which add more flavor and tenderness to chickpeas, (I think chickpeas need some cuddling hahaha).

These vegan chickpea pancakes are ideal for breakfast but...am I the first one to break rules, I served them for lunch and my girl indulged herself as if she hadn't eaten for ages lol.

These vegan pancakes are absolutely gluten-free and grain-free.

I know, some still consider buckwheat as grain while it's definitely a seed.

Buckwheat

It's an ancient seed with origins from Southeast of Asia. It's a good source of plant proteins with a good concentration of amino acids.

Buckwheat has a lot of dietary fiber that will help improve your digestion.
Rich in Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium, and Sodium. It contains Iron, Manganese, and Zinc. You'll get some trace minerals like Chromium, and Selenium.

Additionally, you will get vitamins B1, B2, and B6. Rich in antioxidants, buckwheat will help in fighting some disease as well as improving your health.

Chickpeas

You'll obviously be fully filled with these chickpea pancakes, chickpeas are very satisfying keeping you off from snacks.

Good source of proteins, fiber, and minerals especially Molybdenum, chickpeas will also help in improving your health.

Chickpeas fiber is insoluble, meaning you don't digest it, but the microbiome in your colon will break insoluble fiber into short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) which your cells will absorb and use as a source of energy.

They come with some antioxidants that will fight free radicals as well as protecting against the risk of Cardiovascular Disease, reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, improve your bone health as well as fighting cancer.

Orange and yogurt sauce

These chickpea pancakes are extra delicious thanks to the sauce I made.

Just an orange and yogurt et voilà, you have a very yummy sauce to accompany your gluten-free pancakes.

Get the orange supreme and squeeze them with your hand. Add a yogurt, I use plant-based.

Mix well with a fork. Pour the sauce on your chickpea pancakes and enjoy yourself.

Here I go, leaving you with these very delicious vegan pancakes made with whole chickpeas to enjoy over the weekend with your family...

Instructions

• Heat your non sticky pan, as it heats slice the apples into fine wedges.
• Pour the batter on the pan and add apples as soon as possible.
• Let the pancake cook well before turning, use a large spatula to slowly turn the pancakes.
• Cook your pancakes at medium-high heat.

Orange sauce

• Peel the orange to get the supreme
• Put the supreme in a small bowl then squeeze the juice from the membranes
• Pick the supreme and squeeze them too with your hands to get the pulp and the juice. You can instead use a fork.
• Add yogurt and mix well with a spoon
• Reserve this sauce in the fridge as you make the pancakes or just keep it aside.

Serving your Vegan pancakes with whole chickpeas & apples

Notes

Depending on your serving spoon you might yield more or fewer pancakes.

We don't add any sweeteners but feel free to add any syrup or honey, though, for better health, you'll be better with less sugar.

I recommend using a Ceylon cinnamon stick as they are soft to blend than Chinese cinnamon which you can soak or instead reduce into powder first if you have a good blender.

If you are not using a high-speed blender, you might need to add some more water for the batter to run smoothly.
