Who knew that you can make a vegan dish that tastes and looks like scrambled eggs. I know it sounds too good to be true but food can be delicious when you follow a plant-based diet. So how does one make a vegan version of scrambled eggs without using eggs? You simply use a staple that you probably have in your pantry- chickpeas. Most people buy chickpeas or garbanzo beans to make hummus but I am going to show you a whole new use for that can of chickpeas that you have in your food staples and it has nothing to do with those nutty-tasting chickpeas but instead the liquid or brine from the can of chickpeas.
That's right, the liquid in the chickpea can that you usually toss down the drain. So next time you open a can of garbanzo beans, drain the liquid into a jar and use it to create soft, curdy scrambled eggs that are plant-based. This magical egg substitute is called Aquafaba and can be used for many things like vegan chocolate mousse, vegan mayo, and vegan egg dishes. So start saving the can of chickpea liquid or learn how to make your own vegan egg liquid.
Learn how to make the magical vegan egg substitute called Aquafaba using chickpea cooking liquid
Vegan eggs are:
+ Delicious
+ Easy to make
+ Plant-based food
+ Nutritious
+ Vegetarian
+ Great for any meal
+ Allergy-friendly
+ Gluten-free
That's right you can make your own Aquafaba and all you need is a bag of dried chickpeas and a pressure cooker or Instant Pot. You also will need a Mason jar. So buy the items that you need and then get the recipe for Aquafaba HERE.
Don't cook all the dried chickpeas
To make the Aquafaba, you need to cook the dried garbanzo beans. Those cooked chickpeas can be used for many recipes like vegan tuna salad or oven-roasted garbanzo beans but make sure not to cook the whole bag of dried chickpeas. For the aquafaba liquid recipe, you only need one cup of dried beans. Then you are going to make homemade garbanzo bean flour from dried chickpeas or you can buy garbanzo bean flour. You will need garbanzo bean flour for the vegan scrambled egg recipe. Don't worry about not having any other uses for the chickpea flour as this high-protein flour can be used in other recipes like this delicious vegan omelet or even making grain-free gluten-free crackers. I swear I get so hungry from writing my recipe posts.
Tip: You can also use the Aquafaba from a can of chickpeas.

How to make vegan scrambled eggs
Making these delicious plant-based scrambled eggs is so easy. You just combine the garbanzo bean flour with the Aquafaba, nutritional yeast, and some spices. The spices give the vegan eggs their amazing yellow color and their great egg-like taste. Don't skimp on any of the recipe's ingredients like nutritional yeast as they are all needed for the flavor. Nutritional yeast is a great vegan substitute for vegan parmesan cheese and you can use the nutritional yeast to make vegan cashew cheese that is an awesome tasty spread that tastes like a pate. This vegan food plan is not that hard to follow as long as you have many plant-based recipes. Following a plant-based diet is a money-saving thing to do as a meatless diet is less expensive than eating meat. In my opinion, a meatless diet is better for your health. I mostly follow a vegan diet as it helps with my asthma as a dairy allergy was the cause of my asthma. I do occasionally eat fish and eggs but this vegan egg recipe is changing that. You can even bake without eggs with these 11 vegan egg substitutes. Once you try many of these vegan recipes, you might just stop eating eggs.
Scrambles like real eggs
This unique vegan egg substitute even scrambles like the real thing. Once you pour the vegan egg batter into the pan it starts cooking like real eggs and then you are able to scramble the vegan egg mixture up. If you like veggies with your vegan eggs, I recommend cooking them or saute the veggies before adding them to the vegan eggs. You can use veggies like spinach, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, and onions. You can even add vegan cheese to this delicious vegan scramble. I like adding green chile to mine.

Mmmm! That sounds SO good! I am totally making this as soon as I can!
This is very interesting, I had no idea that you could use the water from the chickpeas to make egg replacement meals.
I will have to try this for sure! I do enjoy chickpeas and this looks incredible. I'm excited to give this a taste.
The Vegan Scrambled Eggs recipe seem interesting, we also use Green Coriander in eggs...
Very interesting. I don't like the texture of eggs so I don't eat them, but maybe I'll try this for my husband. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us!
Wow! i am floored. I never knew this is how vegan eggs are made. It seems super simple to make too! I am just a little worried about the taste and texture.
I used to have chickpeas at home, as I used to cook plant-based food for myself. It’s the first recipe for scrambled eggs that I’ve come across. I’ll give it a try next time.
Yum, that looks delicious. I love adding greens to my eggs too, a great way to add extra nutrients!
I never would have considered making vegan scrambled eggs, honestly. That being said - I love chickpeas and the versatility that they provide. I'm going to have to give this a try!
This looks really good. I have never had chickpeas before, but I've always wanted to give them a try. I'll have to make this and see how it goes.
This recipe is AWESOME! As someone who has an egg allergy, I constantly struggle with breakfast foods - luckily I am a big chickpea fan so I already have them around often. I can't wait to give this recipe a try. Yum!
When I was vegan, I had the hardest time trying to find a substitute for eggs. I bet this would have been what I needed!
Chickpeas are some of the underrated beans. They are so potent when it comes to fiber and micronutrients. Love your recipe.
From the look of it, it looks so delicious. and it seems very easy to make one. Thanks for sharing this amazing vegan recipe!
I love chickpeas, but unfortunately I am not able to eat eggs because of the taste and texture. This looks like a great option for those who can't eat eggs but love them.
I never found an egg substuite I liked so I'll have to try this.
I love this!! Such a great substitute!
This looks beautiful! I would love to try making this if I can find the chickpea flour anywhere.
Thank you for sharing this :)
Eggs with chickpeas is such a great idea! It's definitely a must try dish!
I love that it looks so much like eggs but without that smell. I have made vegan scrambled eggs several times in the past but I used firm tofu but this one looks much nicer in appearance.
This looks super delicious! I never would have thought to use chickpeas as an egg substitute but I so have to try it.
Yum! I have to make this for breakfast.
The only egg substitute I have come across is for baking! This is pretty interesting! I will have to give it a try!
Here due to non availability of meat, this is the perfect recipe to try out. Thank you so much for sharing.
This is a mouthwatering recipe. Your recipes are delicious and one can make them easily.
Sounds interesting! I've been trying to adopt a more plant based diet, so I can't wait to try it!
Scrambled eggs are great to have for breakfast though I've never tried vegan scrambled eggs before but I bet it tastes delicious.
This sounds great. I would use Kala Namak (vulcanic) salt, it smells really eggy and does the trick when used for vegan egg(less) dishes.
Thank you for this recipe.
I have made vegan scramble with tofu and nutritional yeast and I really liked it. Your batter seems closer to the real texture so I have to try this one
OH wow. I would have never known those weren't eggs if you hadn't told us!
This looks amazing. I have never tried scrambled eggs like this before. I definitely will be giving this a try.
That does look so healthy and delicious! Wish I could just eat it off the computer screen!
This has never crossed my mind. Sounds so delicious �� thanks for the idea.
This would be one of my favorite breakfast. Absolutely. I love chickpeas and eggs are one of my staples in my pantry
I would like to try this recipe so I can serve something nice to my vegan friends and family members.
What a brilliant idea!! I'll have to try and make these sometime soon!
This looks amazing. I had no idea you could make scramble eggs with chickpeas.
We make a similar dish using canned chickpeas and it is delicious!
I would love to try this, I am yet to try vegan scrambled eggs with chickpea flour.
Interesting!! I love omelets a lot but this a new idea. If it tastes like scrambled eggs, I'm in!!
I have yet to find a subsitute that I really liked, but with the price of eggs. This may be my next choice since I'm low carb and eggs are a big part of my diet.
This is something I'm going to have to give a try. It looks really good. I always love new recipes for breakfast.
My stomach is very sensitive to high fibrous foods like chick peas. I wonder if I'd be able to tolerate these though since I'm not eating straight chick peas.
Wow! This looks absolutely delicious and tasty! I would really love to try this recipe!
I will have to share this with my daughter she is a Vegan! Chickpeas have never agreed with me though lol.
This sounds incredibly interesting and I'd love to give it a try! I've seen vegan alternatives to egg using mungbean as well!
This sounds...um...interesting. I'm not sure it's something I want to try or not. I really like the taste of eggs.
I've seen chickpeas mentioned in a log of vegan recipes. They must be good stuff.
It's healthy and it looks like real scrambled eggs. I am so curious to try!
I love garbanzo beans and I know they are nutritional. But, I love these new uses.
