Farinata di ceci - glutenfree and vegan Italian flatbread from chickpea flour

Farinata di ceci is a traditional Italian flatbread baked in a skillet in the oven. Or you can call it a pancake. Or a pizza. In any case, made from chickpeas and therefore completely gluten, grain, dairy and egg free. Especially in Liguria (around Genoa) farinata is eaten as a snack, appetizer or side dish.

Instructions

  1. Mix the flour with the water. Beat lightly with the whisk. Then set aside for at least half an hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 390F or 200C.
  3. The batter has now become a bit thicker, creamier and has more air. Add the extra virgin oil, the (pressed) garlic, the chili flakes and the salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Grease the pan with a generous dash of mild olive oil. Don't forget the edges!
  5. Mix the batter briefly again with the whisk. Pour the batter into the pan.
  6. Place the pan in the oven. First half an hour to 'cook'. For example, in a hot air oven with the rack at a low/middle level. Then for 10 minutes at a higher level with the grill from above to get a nice crust.
  7. While the cake is still warm, pour a drizzle of olive oil over it.

Notes

  • Delicious for dipping with pesto or baba ganoush.
