Grate the zucchini and carrot using a box grater and place them in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper into small pieces and finely chop the scallions and parsley. Add these to the mixing bowl with the zucchini and carrot.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, water, and egg until smooth. Add in the garlic powder, cumin powder, salt, and black pepper.
Combine the wet mixture with the vegetables in the large mixing bowl and stir until everything is well coated and combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop 1/4 cup portions of the vegetable batter into the skillet and gently spread them out into pancake shapes.
Cook each pancake for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove cooked pancakes and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes warm, optionally garnished with extra chopped parsley or your favorite gluten-free sauce.
