This is really good for not just for babies or toddlers & so quick and easy. You can add whatever fillings you like too (if using mushrooms or peppers they go best cooked first to add extra flavour).
Vegan Omelette
Ingredients
- 30 g chickpea flour (also called besan or gram flour)
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
- Pinch black pepper
- Pinch kala namak (black salt for an eggy flavour, or sea salt - omit for under 12 months)
- 80 ml water (can sub with plant milk for a creamier omelette)
- 1 tsp olive oil (to oil the pan)
Add ins
- 15 g baby spinach (finely chopped)
- 35 g cherry tomatoes (diced)
- 25 g vegan cheese (grated)
Instructions
- Add all of the batter ingredients to a blender and blend for ~15 seconds until smooth (you can also whisk by hand).
- Spray some oil in a hot pan, pour in all of the batter for a large omelette, or half for 2 smaller ones, and gently use a spatula to spread it evenly, then cook for 3 mins on medium-high heat.
- If serving plain, flip over and cook for a further 2 minutes. If you’re adding fillings, fold in half like a traditional omelette and cook a further 2 minutes.
- Cut into strips for babies under 12 months, and serve warm.

Does this freeze okay?
I have never tried with this. We freeze chickpea frittatas and they go really well, so quite possibly it would work. Let me know if you do!
