Red Onion Tomato Crostata Emily Franklin

Red Onion, Tomato, Double Cheese Galette with Corn & Garbanzo Crust

This started as many recipes do, with good intentions…until I reached for the wrong flour.  Is there an incorrect one? I guess. If you’re making traditional chocolate chip cookies, for example, and you use chickpea flour, maybe the results aren’t what you wanted.  But for this gallette, the garbanzo bean flour wound up in my hand and then wound up in the bowl.  So be it.  I’ve been on a clumsy kick of late – think sheared Achilles and calcaneus and finger surgery after I slammed the door on myself.  Codename: Graceful! So now that I have some use of my right hand, I’m not going to redo what was clearly meant to be. If you haven’t tried chickpea/garbanzo bean flour before, note that it’s high in protein and makes things crispy.  Which is good in a crust and less good on a finger.

  1. I made this today with sweet potatoes and spinach, in addition to the onions and tomatoes, and it was absolutely delicious. I brought it to a potluck and it disappeared in an instant. Thanks, Emily!
