Servings 18 blinis

Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsps natural yoghurt (SCD Yoghurt if you follow the diet)
  • 3-4 tbsps chickpea flour (garbanzo bean flour)
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
  • 2 tbsps coconut oil (for frying)
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Beat together the eggs and the yoghurt.
  • Add the chickpea flour to the mixture bit by bit, stirring well to ensure there no lumps.
  • Add just enough chickpea flour to get the right consistency. You want a batter that is almost paste-like (just pourable).
  • Add a pinch of salt (optional) and the bicarbonate of soda and mix well.
  • Heat a teaspoon of the coconut oil in a frying pan on a medium heat.
  • Drop a tablespoon of the mixture into the pan. It should spread out a little and what you're after is a kind of circular shape about 3-4cm in diameter. 
  • Fry for 2-3 mins and then flip and fry for another 2 mins until browned.
  • Repeat until you have used all the mixture.
  • Allow to cool and then add your favourite toppings before serving.
