How to Make Socca (Chickpea Pancake)

1. Preheat Oven and Skillet

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a 12-inch (30cm) cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat up.

2. Prepare Batter

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, salt, and a dash of pepper. Gradually pour in the water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, whisking until you have a smooth batter. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

3. Bake Socca

Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and coat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour in the batter and spread it evenly. Bake for about 15 minutes until firm and lightly browned at the edges.

4. Broil Socca

Switch the oven to broil, brush the socca with the remaining olive oil, and broil until golden brown on top. This adds a charred and crispy texture.

5. Serve Immediately

Remove the socca from the oven, cut into wedges, and serve hot.
