Equipment

  • 1 High Speed Blender optional

Ingredients

  • 150 g chickpea flour
  • 80 g tapioca starch
  • 180 ml oat milk gluten-free
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 pinch turmeric

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine chickpea flour, tapioca starch, salt and turmeric. Then gradually pour in the gluten-free oat milk. Whisk until smooth. The batter should be thick.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Then spread some of the batter onto a small wooden cutting board in a thin layer and dip it in the hot water for just a second.
  • Using a knife, scrape off long, thin strips of the dough into the boiling water. Allow the Spätzle to cook for about 3 minutes. Then use a spoon to remove them from the pot and rinse them with cold water so they don't stick.

Notes

  • Serve the Spätzle with sautéed mushrooms, onions, gravy, vegan meatballs or vegan schnitzel. You can also pan-fry the Spätzle briefly with a little oil and salt. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy.
  • These Spätzle are the perfect side dish.
