Chickpea Pancakes image

A recipe for savoury pancakes - ideal for vegetarians and those who can't have wheat flour. Haven't tried yet, but goes well as a brunch dish with shredded chicken, bean sprouts, mushrooms and spinach apparently..From Dominique Rizzo, a Brisbane organic chef. TIP; test the 1st pancake and if it's a bit dry, add some more oil to the batter.

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

These pancakes were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try using a different recipe next time.
