I am all into chickpea flour right now. I discover that magic yellow flour few weeks ago and I can’t stop myself to cook with it. Since hubby goes vegan this is my favorite flour to use as a egg replacement. I made chickpea flour crepes, chickpea flour omelette and now chickpea flour frittata. If you are not vegan, you probably wonder if it taste great? Well, it does taste like a egg frittata. It has the same egg-like texture with the similar yellow colors. Even my kids won’t notice it was a egg-free frittata made of chickpea flour.
Did you know that chickpea flour contains more protein than eggs per serve? There is 22 g of protein in 100 g of chickpea flour compared to 13 g in 100 g of cooked eggs. Amazing right?

I need help. I tried making this twice and it didn’t turn out good. I am wondering if I made to many swaps.
I used russet potatoes, bell pepper and shredded zucchini. Did I make the mixture to moist? It was completely mushy in the middle. I also added the baking powder but is it possible to over mix?
If your zucchinis are not squeezed out from their water they can liquify the batter which explain why the frittata won’t cook inside. I hope this helps,
These are AMAZING!!! I am so glad you posted this! I had some left over batter so my daughter suggested that we throw it in the waffle iron. It worked! Best Mickey Mouse Waffle ever!
Thanks for the great recipe!
WOW! That is a great idea, I will definetly try the waffle idea. My kids loves waffles too so this is good to know I can reuse the batter in my iron. Enjoy the recipes on the blog. XOXO Carine.
I tried these this morning and they are great. Any thoughts about about how to make this in a bigger dish vs. in muffin tins? I am thinking pie like slices. Thank you so much!
Yes sure! I do large large frittata with this recipe in a 26 cm pie dish with no problem. It makes a nice brunch or dinner that all the family loves. Enjoy ! Carine.
Is it possible that you could post the macros per serving please? I’m going to make these but trying to track my intake!
Hi Jamie, scroll down after the recipe box and you will see the full nutrition panel per serving. Enjoy the frittata! XOXO Carine.
Looks so good, thanks for sharing this recipe!
My pleasure! I hope you like them. XOXO Carine.
A very easy recipe to make. Thank you. I found them a bit bland – will add curry powder or cumin next time. Will addition of baking powder make them less dense?
Hi there , I found this very easy to make, but agree with Carol, a bit bland, I followed the recipe to the letter. I will definitely be making it again but will add loads more flavour. Perhaps tomato pure, some lemon juice and chopped coriander.
Thanks for the recipe
I agree, adding chopped herbs or tomato paste is a great idea. I usually serve those frittata with tomato paste sauce on side and a green salad to add some flavor into my plate. Thanks for your lovely comment. XOXO Carine.
Thanks for your feedback There is alerady cumin, paprika and italian herbs in the recipe. Did you skip it ? I like frittata thick and dense so I did not add any baking powder but I guess it could help with the texture if you like fluffy frittata. Thanks for trying ! Carine.
Oh, my goodness! I made these this morning and they’re GREAT! Well received by the whole family. The extra are in the fridge, but likely will be eaten later today.
I am SO happy you love them too! Amazing right? I love my chickpea flour right now, it is so versatile and a great flour for vegan recipes. Enjoy the blog (and leftover! I am sure it won’t last long :))
XOXO Carine.
Hi! Do you know if these freeze well? Thanks so much 🙂
I am pretty sure yes. We always eat the whole batch in less than 3 days. But it should freeze as any regular muffins. Enjoy ! XOXO Carine.
Dear Carine, recipe is just perfect, thank you very much, you are the best! Marta from Toronto, Canada
You are so lovely! I am so glad you love it. Thanks for taking a minute to comment! XOXO Carine.
