Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 80 grams chickpea flour
- 140 grams water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Chopped fresh herbs, dried herbs, or spices (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) to prepare for baking the chips.
- Mix batter: In a bowl, combine the chickpea flour, water, and salt. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until you achieve a smooth batter without lumps.
- Prepare baking sheets: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the batter from sticking and to ensure easy removal after baking.
- Shape chips: Spoon the batter onto the parchment paper, spreading it into thin circular shapes to get chip-like crispness.
- Add seasoning: Sprinkle your choice of fresh chopped herbs, dried herbs, or spices evenly over the batter circles for extra flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until the chips turn golden and the edges are lightly browned and crisp.
- Cool chips: Remove from the oven and let the chips cool for 15 to 20 minutes. This resting time ensures they firm up and become perfectly crisp for serving.
- Serve: Gently peel the cooled chips off the parchment paper and serve them as a snack with dips or enjoy them plain.
Notes
- For thinner and crispier chips, spread the batter as thinly as possible without breaking.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices like paprika, cumin, rosemary, or thyme to customize flavors.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
- Make sure to cool chips completely before storing to prevent sogginess.
- This recipe is naturally gluten-free and vegan-friendly.
