I’ve always loved a good omelet, but once I transitioned to a plant-based lifestyle, I thought I’d have to give that up.
That’s when I discovered how to create a delicious vegan version using chickpea flour!
It's become a staple for me, especially on lazy Sunday mornings when I want something warm and satisfying.
Plus, it’s packed with protein, which keeps me energized throughout the day.
What Makes This Recipe Special
- ✓Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
- ✓No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
- ✓Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
- ✓Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not
Ingredients & Substitutions
Chickpea flour is the star here, giving that lovely texture. If you can’t find black salt, regular salt will work, but you’ll miss that unique flavor. Feel free to get creative with your fillings – mushrooms, zucchini, or even a dollop of avocado would be delicious!
Tips & Notes
- •I always keep a little extra water on hand to adjust the batter consistency if needed.
- •For a bit of spice, add some chili flakes to the batter or sauté.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll add in some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for extra flavor.
- •If I'm feeling indulgent, I might sprinkle some vegan cheese inside before folding.
Storage & Freezing
These omelets are best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just reheat gently in a skillet!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the batter and fillings in advance. Just store them separately in the fridge and cook when you're ready.
