Chickpea pancakes, often referred to as socca or besan chilla depending on the cuisine, are savory flatbreads made primarily from chickpea flour. Originating in Mediterranean and South Asian kitchens, they feature simple ingredients such as water, olive oil, and spices or herbs for flavor. Some variations include vegetables or additional protein to enhance their nutritional value. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like folate and iron, chickpea pancakes support digestion and sustained energy levels. They are naturally gluten-free and suitable for vegan diets, making them an excellent choice for diverse dietary needs. However, their calorie content can increase depending on added toppings, oils, or fillings. Versatile and quick to prepare, chickpea pancakes offer a satisfying, health-conscious option for snacks, breakfasts, or light meals while celebrating global culinary traditions.
