Ingredients

  • Batter:
  • 2/3 cup chickpea flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt more or less to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika pimenton--hot or sweet
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 cup peeled diced 1/4-inch Gold or red-skined potato (about 1 medium)
  • 1/2 of a medium onion chopped
  • 1/2 of a medium red bell. seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450F (225C). Grease or spray 6 cups in a standard size muffin tin.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, salt and smoked paprika; slowly whisk in water (this helps to avoid lumps) until blended and smooth. Whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil. Let stand while preparing vegetables.
  • Place the potatoes in a medium-large skillet and fill with enough water to just cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; cooked for 10-12 minutes, stirring once to avoid sticking, until fork-tender; Drain in a colander,
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and bell pepper. Cook and stir for 5 to 6 minutes until vegetables are somewhat softened. Add the potatoes; cook and stir for 30 seconds longer. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the vegetables between the prepared cups. Whisk the baking powder into the batter, then divide the batter over the vegetables.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 14 to 18 minutes until the centers are set, the edges are golden brown, and the surface of the pucks appears dry. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from the tin. Serve warm, room temp, or chilled.
