Ingredients

Instructions

  • Whisk the chickpea flour, water, nutritional yeast, and powdered seasonings together until thoroughly combined. Set aside for about 10 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and place the cast iron skillet inside.
  • In another pan, melt a tablespoon of coconut oil, then cook the minced garlic for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the red onion and bell peppers. Continue cooking for 7 to 9 minutes or until the onions barely start to caramelize and the bell peppers are tender.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes or until they begin to soften.
  • Add the spinach and give everything a quick stir. No need to wilt the greens as they'll get cooked in the oven. Remove the veggies from the heat.
  • Remove the preheated cast iron skillet from the oven.
  • Add the remaining coconut oil, swirling it around to coat the skillet completely.
  • Pour in half of the chickpea flour batter, then add half of the vegetables.
  • Add the remaining batter and top with the remaining vegetables.
  • Bake the casserole for 27 to 30 minutes. At 25 minutes, you can check if the center is no longer wet.
  • Once cooked through, remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving with microgreens.

Notes

  • Get creative with the vegetables in your vegan breakfast casserole! For inspiration, mix and match green onions, carrots, cremini mushrooms, and zucchini.
  • You can also add vegan sausage or bacon bits for that meaty touch.
  • Your leftover casserole can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. To serve, just pop it in the microwave on High for a minute or two.
