Description

This fluffy and flavorful chickpea scramble is the perfect savory vegan breakfast to start your morning! Ready in just 10 minutes and cooks just like eggs!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 26 ounces (2 13-ounce jars) chickpeas, rinsed and drained (save the aquafaba for vegan egg whites in baking!)
  • 1/3 cup chickpea flour
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp sea salt*
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup water or coconut milk (or any dairy free milk)

Instructions

  1. Blend: In a food processor or blender, blitz the chickpeas until they’re ground up and ALMOST a paste. Scoop the chickpeas into a bowl, and set aside.
  2. Mix: In a separate bowl, combine the remaining chickpea scramble ingredients (don’t add in the chickpeas here). Whisk together until mixed.
  3. Cook: In a medium skillet, heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil until hot on medium heat. Add in the chickpeas, and the scramble liquid. Begin to scramble the mixture as it cooks for 4-6 minutes. If you feel your chickpea scramble is drying up too much, you can add more water or dairy free milk.
  4. Serve: Serve your chickpea scramble immediately with your favorite vegan breakfast sides!

Notes

Kala Namak Salt: or Indian Black Salt. You can substitute this for the sea salt for a more egg-like flavor.
