    How to Make Vegan Breakfast Burritos

    collage showing the process of making vegan breakfast burritos
    1. Start by making your eggless scrambled eggs.
    2. Add chickpea flour, water, turmeric, cumin, pepper, and salt to a medium bowl and whisk until the ingredients are combined. 
    3. In a frying pan, heat oil and then sauté the onion, garlic, bell pepper, and herbs. 
    4. Add the spinach and stir it in well. 
    5. Pour the chickpea flour mixture over the spinach, and let it cook until it firms. 
    6. Use a spoon to break it all apart and scramble the “eggs.”
    7. Keep scrambling until everything is cooked through.
    8. To assemble it into breakfast burritos, start by dividing the mixture into six portions and spoon them onto your 6 burrito wraps. 
    9. Add lettuce and red cabbage (optional). 
    10. Wrap your burritos and serve!

    Tips & Tricks

    Chickpea Flour

    Chickpea flour is a versatile ingredient that is definitely worth experimenting with. It's loaded with protein, fiber, and iron.

    You can substitute it for traditional flour for a gluten-free option in many recipes.

    Personally, I like this chickpea flour, which I buy on Amazon.

    I use it in this Burmese Chickpea Tofu, these delicious Chickpea Flour Crepes, and even these Chickpea Blinis.

    Folding Your Burrito

    You can fold your vegan breakfast burrito any way you like, but here is my fail-proof method.

    Place your “eggs” in the center of the wrap, but closer to the top edge. Start by folding the bottom edge up and then folding over the left edge and then the right. That’ll make it so one edge of the wrap is open. It’ll look like an open envelope.

    If you're a visual person, check out this video showing you how to roll a burrito perfectly!

    Crispy Eggs

    If you want crispier “eggs,” then all you need to do is let the mixture cook a few minutes longer. This will firm up the chickpea mixture.

    Variations

    Mix up the Fillings

    Feel free to experiment with the fillings for your vegan burritos. I like to throw in some sauteed veggies, like mushrooms or onions.

    You can also add some dairy-free cheese or your favorite dressing.

    Southwest Breakfast Burritos

    If you love some good southwest flavor, try this combination. Once you’ve added the “eggs” to your breakfast wrap, add some diced tomatoes, cooked black beans, and a sprinkle of vegan cheddar cheese. 

    Change the Wrap

    Wraps come in an endles number of flavors. I've used a regular flour wrap, but other popular flavors include green spinach wraps and sun-dried tomato wraps.
