Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Raw beetroot
- 1 cup Chickpea flour
- 1.5 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and grate the beetroot using a fine grater to yield approximately 1 cup of grated beets. Place the grated beetroot in a bowl and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, water, olive oil, ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture until smooth and well combined.
Add the grated beetroot to the flour mixture and stir until the beets are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to allow the flaxseed to absorb moisture and thicken the batter slightly.
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a little olive oil if necessary.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the preheated pan, gently spreading it with the back of a spoon or a spatula to form a thin, round tortilla.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift slightly, then carefully flip the tortilla using a spatula. Cook the other side for an additional 2 minutes until firm and cooked through.
Remove the cooked tortilla from the pan and place it on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Once all the tortillas are cooked, allow them to cool slightly. Serve warm or allow them to come to room temperature before using as needed.
