Southwestern Vegan "Egg" Cups

(165 g) chickpea flour

(25 g) nutritional yeast

(453 g) soft silken tofu*

(120 ml) non-dairy milk

chili powder

cumin

garlic powder

black pepper,

salt

baking powder

yellow onion, finely diced

red bell pepper, finely diced

(113 g) can diced green chiles

vegan cheese (optional)

Prep: 

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease or line a muffin pan and set aside.

Blend: 

Add the chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, tofu, milk, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to a high-speed blender. Blend on high for 45-60 seconds, until a smooth &#8220;batter forms&#8221;. Scrape the sides of the blender with a spatula as necessary.

Mix: 

Transfer the &#8220;egg&#8221; batter to a large bowl, then add in the onion, bell pepper, green chiles, and vegan cheese (if using). Fold the veggies into the batter until evenly combined.

Bake: 

Divide the &#8220;egg&#8221; batter evenly into the muffin tins, then bake in the middle rack of the oven for 37 to 40 minutes, or until the top of the muffins are puffy and slightly golden. Remove from the oven and set sit in the baking tray for 5 to 7 minutes, where the muffins will deflate. Then, transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely.

Serve &amp; Storage

the &#8220;egg&#8221; muffins can be enjoyed immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The texture of these is more similar to eggs once they sit in the fridge overnight! Leftovers can be enjoyed cold, or warmed up in the toaster oven or microwave.

Made this for dinner. Soooo good. Between my husband and I, we ate all 12 in one sitting. 😋😋😋

Another great recipe! 
I've had your other egg cups (made with chickpea flour only) which are great, but I've got to say, I reaalllly love the addition of the soft tofu! Changes the texture for the better! Great flavour combo too! 
I didn't have green chiles on hand, so I swapped for salsa! Worked perfectly! Thanks for another great recipe! Will definitely be adding to the regular rotation!

If I freeze these will I have to defrost before reheating or would I be able to reheat straight from frozen? Thanks ☺️

These muffins are full of flavor!!! I absolutely love them. I added olives and sun dried tomatoes. The best way to forget about eggs (my last step in vegan transition, one step at a time)

These turned out fantastic! Perfect for a quick breakfast or snacking in the afternoon. So tasty and versatile. I can't get over how good they are.
