Ingredients
- 2 cups Ivory or Brown Teff Flour
- 0.5 cup All-purpose Flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm Water
- 1 cup Club Soda
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable Oil(optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the teff flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- 2
Gradually pour in the warm water and lemon juice, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth, lump-free batter.
- 3
Gently stir in the club soda just before cooking; the bubbles will help create the characteristic 'eyes' or holes in the bread.
- 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium-high heat and lightly brush with a tiny amount of oil if necessary.
- 5
Pour about 1/2 cup of batter into the center of the pan and quickly swirl it outward in a circular motion to cover the surface.
- 6
Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and cook for about 2 minutes until the top is dry and full of small holes.
- 7
Do not flip the injera; simply slide it off the pan onto a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel.
- 8
Allow the injera to cool completely before stacking to prevent them from sticking together.
