How to make vegan omelets from chickpea batter.

chickpea omelette

This Chickpea ‘Omelette’ is a deliciously healthy breakfast that is dairy-free, gluten-free, egg-free, nut-free, and made with no onion. The batter for this vegan Chickpea ‘Omelette’ is made without oil (apart from the oil contained in the coconut milk), and almost as easy to make as a traditional omelette made with eggs. With a rich cheesy texture, this is my best version of a vegan ‘omelette’ recipe; and I sincerely hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Chickpea Omelette (no onion | oil-free batter)

coconut milk*

tsp turmeric**

paprika

cumin seeds

salt

tsp black pepper

tomato (finely chopped)

mushrooms (about 70 g) (sliced)

chickpeas (drained weight: 120 g)

green peas

lime juice

spring onions (finely chopped)

Watch the one-minute recipe video (scroll down a bit) to see all instruction steps.

Add all the &#039;for the batter&#039; ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix with a whisk until smooth.

Add vegetables and mix again with a spatula.

Optional: slightly oil pan with a silicone brush.

Heat up pan on low medium heat and pour half of the batter in the hot pan. Cook on low heat for about 2 miutes, until edges are dry and bubbles appear on top.

For the batter

Add vegan cheese and green peas on one half of the &#039;omelette&#039;, and cook for 5 more minutes on low heat. 

Fold in half using a spatula, set on side, and cook the second &#039;omelette&#039;. Cut both large &#039;omelettes&#039; in half for 4 small servings. PRO TIP: Depending if you are using induction or gas for cooking the Chickpea ‘Omelette’, it can happen that your ‘omelette’ will not be properly cooked from inside when you fold it in half. In that case, you can oven bake or air fry the ‘omelette’ to make sure it is cooked from inside. RAW CHICKPEA FLOUR DOES NOT TASTE GOOD!

For the filling

Serve warm with spring onion and fresh lime juice, and enjoy!

For topping - optional

CHICKPEA 'OMELETTE' (no onion | oil-free batter)

No one will believe there are no eggs in this vegan omelette! Fluffy, so flavorful, and made in just 10 minutes. Gluten free!

Vegan Omelette

tofu*

nutritional yeast

cornstarch

brown rice flour

unsweetened non-dairy milk (I used almond milk)

onion powder

turmeric

black salt (kala namak) OR regular salt*

olive oil

non-dairy cheese shreds (I used daiya cheddar)

Stretchy Vegan Mozzarella

vegetables,

avocado slices, tomato slices, hot sauce, salsa, fresh herbs

Vegan Nacho Cheese Sauce

Nut Free Vegan Cheese Sauce

Drain any liquid from the tofu package. Add the tofu, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, brown rice flour, unsweetened non-dairy milk, paprika, onion powder, turmeric and black salt (or regular salt) to a blender. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Set aside.

If you want to use sautéed vegetables as your filling, cook them now in a small pan with a little olive oil until soft, then set aside. You can even use the same pan you will make your omelette in, just place the cooked vegetables on a plate and keep them close by. Have any vegan cheese you will use nearby as well.

Make the Omelette: Add a few tablespoons of olive oil to a medium non-stick pan (or spray with oil) and turn to medium-high heat. Once hot, pour half of the omelette batter into the center of the pan, trying to make a circle. You can use a spatula to encourage it to spread, sort of like a pancake. You don&#x27;t want it to be too thick, about 1/4-1/2 of an inch thick is perfect.

Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the top looks somewhat dry and set, no longer liquidy. At this point, if for some reason it was thicker than you thought or it&#x27;s not cooked all the way through, you can carefully flip the omelette over and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes.

Add any fillings you want (I used cooked onions, mushrooms, spinach and daiya cheddar shreds) to one half of the omelette, then fold one side over to cover the fillings. Cover and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the cheese has melted.

With a spatula, carefully transfer the omelette to a plate and serve with any additional toppings desired. Repeat with the rest of the batter and toppings. The recipe makes 2 omelettes. Enjoy!

This vegan chickpea omelette is hands down the best plant-based omelette I’ve ever had. Crisp on the outside, soft and tender on the inside, and packed with a a rainbow of veggies. Plus, it’s high in vegan protein, vitamins and minerals.

Vegan Chickpea Omelette

plant-based milk (I used almond milk)

baking powder

garlic powder, optional

sea salt,

red onion, finely chopped

leek, white part only, thinly sliced

cherry tomatoes, quartered

red bell pepper, cubed

chives,

In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together chickpea flour, milk, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Let the batter sit while you prepare the vegetables.

In a non-stick pan, heat olive oil. Add onion and leek and sauté for about about a minute. Add tomatoes and bell pepper, and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Right before you&#x27;re done, toss in the chives as well. Remove from the pan and transfer to a bowl or a plate.

Pour about half of the omelette batter into the heated pan and almost immediately add the vegetables on top. Pour over the other half of the batter.

Wait until it bubbles and firms up along the edges, approximately 2 minutes. When able to, gently fold over one side to cook another minute. Cover with a lid and turn off the stove and allow to steam for 5 minutes.

Serve right away and garnish with fresh tomatoes, minced red onion or more fresh chives.

This eggy silken tofu omelette taste just like the regular ones! It happens to be vegan, gluten-free and high in protein. Super easy to make and incredibly versatile.

Vegan Silken Tofu Omelette

block 14.3 oz silken tofu

cornstarch (or potato/tapioca/arrowroot starch)

salt (or kala namak (black salt))

garlic powder

turmeric powder ((optional))

sauted vegetables

vegan cheese

avocado

In a blender, place in all ingredients and blend until smooth. Depending on the water content of your tofu, you might need to add some water. The batter should resemble that of regular omelette batter, and is slightly more watery than pancake batter.

Heat up ½ a tablespoon or so of oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once pan is heated, pour in half the amount of batter and swirl the pan to encourage the batter to spread out.

Let it cook, covered for 4-6 minutes, or until the tops are cooked and no longer appear wet. Towards the end of cooking, loosen out the sides, ideally using a flexible spatula.

Add fillings of choice to one half of the omelette, them gently fold the other side over. Lightly press it down and cook for another 1-2 minutes.

Carefully transfer it to a plate, serve and enjoy!

onion ((thinly sliced))

oz cremini mushrooms (or button mushrooms)

thyme

chives

chickpea flour ((besan,

rosemary

kala namak ((black salt, or regular salt, to taste))

black pepper

Add 8 oz sliced mushrooms and saute another 2-3 minutes over medium high heat.

Add a tablespoon of chives and a teaspoon of thyme to the mushrooms and onions in skillet. Mix and turn off heat. Set aside while making omelet.

Heat a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Coat the bottom well with oil or use a cooking spray. Once the oil is hot, pour in approximately ⅓ cup batter to form a six-inch circle. Let the omelet cook, covered, until the top is quite dry and there is no wet batter on top. You can reduce heat to make sure the underside doesn&#39;t overcook.

Place filling on one half of the omelet and carefully, using a thin spatula, fold the other half over it. Serve right away.

Make vegan omelet

A Vegan Omelette made with just 2 ingredients.  Chickpea flour and aquafaba. It&#39;s really puffy, light and fluffy, a bit like a souffle omelette, and so delicious. Budget-friendly too!

(46 grams) chickpea flour

(120 mls) aquafaba (, liquid from canned chickpeas)

kala namak (, for eggy flavour)

Add the pepper to the chickpea flour, mix together, then set aside.

In a scrupulously clean bowl, with an electric mixer, whisk the aquafaba until stiffish peaks form. It won&#39;t be as stiff as you need for meringue, just white, fluffy and airy and it should form gentle mounds.

Put a large and very good non stick shallow frying pan or omelette/crepe pan over a medium heat and brush with oil.

Gently and gradually sieve about ¼ of the chickpea flour into the aquafaba and fold in with a metal spoon (don&#39;t use wood or plastic) until just combined. Don&#39;t mix or beat it in.

Repeat until all flour is incorporated. the aquafaba will lose some of its volume but should still stay quite fluffy if you&#39;re very gentle.

Gently help the batter into the frying pan to conserve as much air as possible, so it&#39;s about ½ an inch thick, and level the top gently with a spatula.

Turn to medium low heat and leave well alone until it starts to solidify a bit and the top isn&#39;t wet anymore.

Now you can either turn your omelette over very carefully and continue cooking for another 3 - 4 minutes or put it under the broiler on low keeping a close eye on it until it&#39;s cooked through. Make surre it is cooked through thoroughly because raw chickpea flour does not taste good.  It&#39;s now you should add kala namak for eggy flavour. Sprinkle a tiny bit over the top once you&#39;ve flipped it. Only a tiny bit though because aquafaba is already salted. Don&#39;t do this before it&#39;s almost set as all of your fluffiness could collapse.

Once it&#39;s cooked, gently slide out of the pan. Cover one side with fillings of choice then flip the other half over the top. If you&#39;re using vegan cheese, you can sprinkle it on then pop it under the broiler to melt. Otherwise make sure fillings are pre-cooked.

Vegan Telur Dadar (Omelette)

red onion

red chili

spring onions

rice flour

tsp corn starch

yeast

tsp mushroom seasoning

tsp white pepper

Kala namak (Himalayan black salt) to taste

milliliters water

tofu

aquafaba & pinch of cream of tartar

tbsp cooking oil

Did you know that you can make an omelette alternative with gram flour or besan (chickpea flour)? Chickpea flour is a staple ingredient in Indian cooking, and is often used for a besan chilla (savoury pancake). This savoury pancake is a great alternative for those who are not eating eggs, with the addition of kala namak (black salt) that has an egg-y taste.

g chickpea flour (gram

tsp black salt (kala namak)

vegetables (finely chopped (mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes))

sprinkle fresh herbs (chopped (optional))

chillies (optional)

Optional Vegan cheese (grated)

Mix together gram flour, nutritional yeast, black salt, and a grind of black pepper. Gradually whisk in the water until a smooth consistency to create your omelette/pancake mixture.

You can add your veggies now into the omelette mixture, and stir through (or if you prefer, you can add them later in the middle of the omelette).

Heat the olive oil to a medium heat in a frying pan, and then pour in the mixture.  Slant the pan to disribute the mix evenly acoss the pan.

Fry for approximately 5 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the edges start to come away and bubbles are forming in the omelette.

My favourite way to cook my omelette is to fold the omelette in half now, for a more gooey middle. But you can flip the whole omelette over to cook the other side for a couple more minutes, then add in your veg in the middle if you didn&#39;t earlier, and fold, for something more cooked through.You can also grate some vegan cheese at this stage too if you like.

Serve hot, with some fresh herbs, chilli and extra black salt if you like.

I'd almost given up with chickpeas omelettes, but then I found your recipe and it's worked perfectly!!

I added black beans, sweetcorn, spinach and mushrooms 

I find the chickpea flour taste quite overwhelming - do you have any recommendations of how to mask that taste? 

Thankyou

This was really a delicious omelette.  I used the blender as I made 10 times the recipe and there were chunks of chickpea flour when I made it with the whisk.  I precooked the sliced mushrooms in olive oil and salt and added them to the omelette after I flipped it.

Just had this for breakfast.  I was so nice.  I'm used to chickpea flour omelettes as I've had them in the past but I think yours was the best recipe!  Thank you for sharing.

Loved this, added my own touch by adding chilli and garlic but it came out beautifully

Tasty and quick! Great savoury breakfast.

This omelette is just delicious. I've made it several times now, and I love it.

I love the flavour! Mine came out gluey however. I'm going to try again tomorrow in a bigger pan so it spreads thinner. Either way it's fantastic and simple.

Omg!! This taste so amazing! My new favorite comfort food!! I’m so shocked in a good way it taste just like eggs. Going to make this all the time!!

This is soooo yummy! I’m new to using chickpea flour in cooking and this will for sure become a staple for breakfast. I added mushrooms, black olives, and green onion.  Topped with pico de gallo and shredded cheese 👩‍🍳🤌
