    Flour: Chickpea flour has been used to make gluten free vegetable frittata.

    Liquid: I have used olive oil to cook vegetables and to grease a muffin tin cavities. You can swap any cooking oil for olive oil. Water has been used to make chickpea flour batter.

    Leftover frittatas can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    Adjust seasoning to your taste.

    Ensure not to skip baking powder to prevent frittatas from being dense.
