Gram flour recipies?

[pennyplainknits]

I bought (by mistake) a bag of gram (chickpea) flour, and now I have no idea what to do with it! I bake a lot but the fact that it is gluten free makes me nervous. Short of making a million chapattis, what can I make?

Gingerbread pancakes :-)

Use ~1/3 gram:2/3 AP flour in muffins (sweet or savory) or quick breads with baking soda in the leavening. (soda reduces the bitter/metallic taste) You can add gluten and use it in recipes that require some elasticity -- make sure you let it rest for a few hours, overnight is better. Season as desired and use for crust on oven-baked chicken, chops or fish.

I know there are a bunch more, but would need to hunt up in (presently packed) recipes. It's been a cookoff ingredient in a number of venues I've seen recipes I would never have imagined.

Thank you for your suggestion! What's AP flour? Is it a brand?

AP = All Purpose, plain, not self rising.
