To saute veggies without oil, use either water or a low sodium vegetable stock. Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat. Add veggies to pan. Add 1 to 2 tbsp water or vegetable broth to pan. Saute veggies until light brown adding liquid as needed. Mince the garlic and add to the pan. Add fresh thyme and basil. Cook for 2 more minutes, until garlic is soft.

Pour chickpea batter into a non-stick pan. Let batter cook for two minutes so bottom can set. Add the sauteed vegetables and cooked for 5 more minutes. Transfer the whole pan to oven. Bake at 350F for 12-15 minutes until cooked all the way through.
