Garbanzo Wraps

Let’s dive right in!

These chickpea wraps or garbonzo bean roll-ups are full of savoury flavour, fibre, protein, and nutrients helpful for your mental health. I love adding chia seeds in for added crunch, and anti-inflammatory benefits.

The B vitamins in this treat are unparalleled, and when combined with the boost of fibre and protein, you have a healthy and satisfying treat for your Friday night, or Sunday afternoon!

This recipe is rich in potassium, calcium, and iron. Enjoy with a squeeze of lemon, hummus and cucumbers. The vitamin C from the lemon juice combined with the non-heme iron in the chickpea flour is more easily absorbed than solo. Red pepper is another great vitamin C complement.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup chickpea flour

• 2 tbsp nutritional yeast

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1 tsp Vegeta food seasoning

• 1 tbsp dried dill weed

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

• 1/4 - 1/2 cup water

Optional:

• 1 tsp olive oil

• 1 tbsp chia seeds

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine all dry ingredients. If you don’t have vegeta, a vegetable dry stock in powder form will work. Just mind the salt. (Add in optional chia seeds).

2. Slowly add in the apple cider vinegar and whisk.

3. Add in water to thin out to a puffy crepe-like consistency.

4. Preheat a medium skillet over medium heat. Optional to add in a drizzle of olive oil. If you’re using a non-stick pan, you won’t need the oil, but it does add to the umami flavour.

5. Pour a small amount of the batter into the pan, swirling around until you acheive a crepe-like wrap forms. Cook slowly over medium heat. You may need to turn the heat down a bit here if you’re using olive oil.

6. Flip the “pancake” when it starts to brown on the pan-side. Once the second side is brown and cooked through, remove from pan and keep on cooking! This recipe makes approximately 6-8 small wraps, dependent upon the thickness of the batter.
