INGREDIENTS

0.33 cup chickpea flour

1 scoop unflavored whey protein powder

0.5 cup cantaloupe melon

1 large egg

3 tbsp water

0.5 tbsp olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

1 tbsp fresh chives

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the bacon in a cold skillet and heat over medium until crispy, then drain on paper towels and crumble into small bits.

• 2

  Finely dice the cantaloupe melon into tiny, uniform cubes to ensure even distribution throughout the fritters.

• 3

  In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, unflavored whey protein powder, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

• 4

  Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the egg and water, whisking until a smooth, thick batter forms.

• 5

  Gently fold in the crumbled bacon, diced melon, and chopped chives using a silicone spatula until just combined.

• 6

  Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering.

• 7

  Scoop the batter into the pan to form four fritters, using the back of a spoon to flatten them slightly into even discs.

• 8

  Cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the center is fully set.
