Vegan Scrambled "Eggs" Made with Aquafaba

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

These vegan scrambled eggs actually scramble thanks to secret ingredient aquafaba (i.e., chickpea brine). They're made with a combination of firm tofu, aquafaba, olive oil, nutritional yeast, kala namak (for an egg-like sulfuric taste), ground turmeric (for color), and freshly ground black pepper. All ingredients get blended until smooth and then scrambled in a skillet just like traditional scrambled eggs. Serve them alongside avocado toast and orange slices for the perfect vegan brunch!

Vegan Scrambled "Eggs" Made with Aquafaba

There have been next to zero animal-based products I've missed since transitioning to a fully plant-based diet two years ago. And by "next to zero," I mean only one.

So what's the one thing I do miss?

Cheese? Nope. Surprisingly, not at all.

Honey? Uh-uh.

Meat? Nah, lost my hankering for the stuff when I went vegetarian.

Eggs? Ding, ding, ding! You betcha.

Especially scrambled eggs. The traditional "tofu scramble" has partially filled the scrambled egg void, but crumbling tofu into a pan just isn't the same as skimming soft, fluffy egg curds off a hot skillet. It's that magical moment of seeing the egg mixture transform from goopy liquid to fluffy scrambled eggs that gets me.

Be still my heart.

Vegan Scrambled "Eggs" | These "eggs" are actually scrambled and they taste just like the "real" thing!

Gah, what's a gal to do?

Well I about fell out of my office chair a few months ago when I spotted a certain pre-made vegan scrambled "egg" mixture online. I ordered it immediately and couldn't wait to try it. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but the texture just wasn't the same. Not even close. Dense and rubbery.

To be fair, I only gave it one chance and haven't gone back to it since; thus, I'll offer that kind, compassionate brand the benefit of the doubt and consider the possibility that the unsavory texture might have resulted from my own cooking error.

But the whole experience got me thinking that maybe, just maybe there was a way to recreate a vegan version of scrambled "eggs" that actually scrambled and had a taste + texture highly reminiscent of the "real" thing.

It was worth a shot.

Correction: it was worth 10 shots.

For the record, in this scenario "shots" = recipe-testing attempts. Get your mind outta the gutter college fraternity party (and give mine a hand while you're at it, will you).

Where were we? Ahh yes, 10 shots. I've been testing different variations of this recipe since early May and finally stumbled (or should I say scrambled) upon a winner just the other week.

Throughout testing, I tried versions with a base of chickpea/garbanzo flour, silken tofu, firm tofu, and/or aquafaba (or any combination of the four). However, the winning version relies on a simple base of firm tofu and aquafaba. Here's the full list of ingredients. . .

Firm tofu.
Aquafaba (chickpea brine/canning liquid).
Cold-pressed olive oil.
Nutritional yeast flakes.
Kala namak (i.e., black salt with an egg-like sulfuric taste).
Ground turmeric (for color).
Freshly ground black pepper (if you desire).

To make these vegan scrambled "eggs", you'll blend together all the ingredients like so. . .

Then, you'll cook the tofu-aquafaba mixture in a hot pan for 10–15 minutes, skimming and scrambling as you go, or until it looks like this and/or this.

Then, plate your scrambled "eggs" alongside some avocado toast, coffee + maybe even a few orange slices and serve. Or if your taste buds are anything like mine, douse your scrambled eggs with ketchup before serving. Then, sink your fork in and do a little vegan-scrambled-egg shimmy right there in your kitchen.

Vegan Scrambled "Eggs" Made with Aquafaba

Vegan scrambled eggs that actually scramble thanks to a secret ingredient: aquafaba (aka chickpea brine). These vegan scrambled eggs are made with a combination of firm tofu, aquafaba, olive oil, nutritional yeast, kala namak (for an egg-like sulfuric taste), ground turmeric (for color), and freshly ground black pepper. All ingredients get blended until smooth and then scrambled in a skillet just like traditional scrambled eggs. Serve them alongside avocado toast and orange slices for the perfect vegan brunch!
Course Breakfast, Brunch
Cuisine Gluten-Free, plant-based, Vegan
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 1 –2 people

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces firm tofu (about ⅓ of an 18-ounce block—for best results, go by weight, drained)*
  • ½ cup aquafaba or chickpea brine**
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cold-pressed olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon kala namak (black salt), plus more to taste***
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric (for color)
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a high-speed blender, combine the tofu, aquafaba, olive oil, nutritional yeast, kala namak, turmeric, and black pepper (if using). Blend on high for 1 minute or until completely smooth.
  • Grease a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
  • Once the pan is hot, add the blended tofu mixture (it will sputter when it hits the pan, so be careful). Cook for 1 minute and then immediately cover the pan and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the mixture begins to set around the edges but is still bubbling in the center. Remove the lid and use a wooden spoon or heat-safe spatula to gently pull the mixture across the pan, forming soft curds. Continue to cook for another 8 to 10 minutes, gently pulling and folding the "eggs" every minute or so until the mixture begins to separate into soft, fluffy small to medium-size curds. The mixture will appear "goopy" for the first several minutes, but just keep cooking until the "eggs" take on a soft-scrambled quality and the "goopiness" disappears. Do not stir the "eggs" constantly or you'll end up with scrambled bits and pieces.
  • Remove from the heat and season to taste with more kala namak (I use an additional ⅛ teaspoon) and black pepper, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

*Make sure you use firm tofu—extra-firm tofu does not work as well as it yields a slightly spongier texture.
**Aquafaba is the canning liquid from chickpeas. To collect it, place a colander over a spouted mixing bowl and pour the contents of a 14-ounce can of chickpeas into it, separating the canning liquid from the chickpeas. Measure off ½ cup of the canning liquid and reserve the chickpeas for another use.
***Be careful not to confuse this with "black lava salt" as it is not the same and does not have the same "eggy" flavor needed for this recipe.

    I just tried this and it was AMAZING. My partner is a new vegetarian (not yet vegan), and he really does not like tofu scramble (although, who doesn't like tofu scramble?! also, I make the best scramble, so he's out of his mind). Anyway, the point is -- I just made this for breakfast because I finally had both firm tofu & a can of chickpeas in my house at the same time and my partner and I gobbled it up. Soooo good. He even declared, "This is the best scrambled I've EVER had." Apparently he meant including real-egg scrambles.

    (Btw I didn't have any black salt or black pepper on hand, and it still turned out scrumptious!)

      Hi again! Okay, so I continue to make this recipe non-stop and am loving it. (I switched to the "VeganEgg" product w/ algae for like a week but came back to your recipe because it is sooooo much more delicious and even the texture is better.) I do have an update, though, which is: The covering-the-tofu part is really important! My cast-iron pan didn't have a lid for the longest time, so I covered the pan with an ill-fitting cookie sheet. I finally bought a real lid and it makes a HUGE difference in the fluffiness quality. So, to everyone who's been skimping on the lid step -- don't!

      Thanks again for a great recipe, Ashley!

    I made this for my boyfriend and i for breakfast this morning. It does not yield two servings, though. More like 1.2. The flavor was okay, but it didn't resemble scrambled eggs in consistency or flavor. But it could be because the aquafaba i used was slightly reduced.

      Hi, Whitney! I'm so glad you tried the recipe, but I'm so sorry it didn't come out as expected! Let me see if I can problem solve a bit. . .

      Reduced aquafaba will cause a gummy texture (I know, because that was one of the many ways I tested the recipe), so that could have been the issue (at least texture-wise). Did you use kala namak/black salt (note: this is not the same as black lava salt)? It has a potent sulfur taste to it, which is what offers the scramble its eggy flavor. I hear you on the serving size. I should probably go ahead and change it to one serving, as I eat the entire thing myself, but I went with two because 6 ounces of tofu is actually two servings according to most packages. I'll make a note on that. I hope some of this is useful and again, I'm so sorry it didn't turn out as you expected!

        Thanks for the tips, Ashley! I will try not to leave aquafaba in the microwave unattended next time... ???? I was thawing it, and must've accidentally set the power to high, and it boiled over. A lot..
        I did use kala namak. In fact that's how i judge new tofu scrambled eggs recipes. If you don't use kala namak, you're not even trying.. So you seem to know what you're doing. :-)
        I will try to make it again; with proper aquafaba. That said, i don't mind if my tofu scramble has a different consistency to eggs.

    I, too, was an egg girl before going vegan! I ate a minimum of 2 daily. I was procrastinating about writing a paper for class when I wondered if it was possible to make a scrambled egg from aquafaba since it behaves like egg whites. Lo and behold, it is possible! I don't have the right type of tofu, so I'll have to save this for another day, but thank you for this recipe!

But I will definitely come back and comment if I liked it. Thank you for your many trials and errors! Very greatly appreciated! I went on to look for the perfect scrambled vegan eggs, because I just found the most amazing ham/bacon thingy. It's out of this world. So I need the eggs to go with it :)

    This turned out very good. I think I could have cooked it a little bit longer as the insides ended up being a little more moist than I expected. That being said the moisture didn't take away from the taste that much, I especially thought the eggs tasted great on a piece of toasted sourdough with a little bit of salsa.

          Totally understandable about the scale—even as a food blogger, I didn't have one until I began recipe testing for my cookbook! It's difficult to know exactly what went awry without having been right there alongside you in the kitchen, but I'd guess you probably didn't add enough tofu. Hope this helps and thanks for taking the time to reach out and patiently problem-solve—means a lot! :)

    I am definitely going to try your recipe. I know a good recipe when I read it.
    I have a question though. I was trying out aqua faba before and I put it in the fridge overnight, the next morning it had separated. What did I do wrong, could it be that I didn't whip it enough?

      January 04, 2018 at 2:55 pm

      Thanks, Lillian! How did you handle the aquafaba/what type of recipe were you using it for? Un-whipped aquafaba won't separate, but if you had whipped it and then refrigerated, it's possible it could separate. Difficult to say without knowing specifics but it shouldn't be a problem for this recipe since you're adding it in a liquid state straight from the can.

    Had some tofu that had to get used up... did a double recipe. Had to simmer it quite a bit longer, probably because I'm at altitude (~7800'). Ate it with 3 baked potatoes and some vegan bacon bits. Stupendous flavor! Texture is hard to do but I'll make it again quite soon I'm sure, I might try a tiny bit of cornstarch to see what happens. I'm a large man, not fat any more but still large. Due to gallbladder issues I've had to give up eggs and almost all fat (vegan fat/oil isn't that problematic). This reminded me of my good old piggy days and will help me put some weight back on.... sigh.... thank you!! Incredibly close to scrambled eggs flavor.

    I saved this recipe on Pinterest when I first started my journey to a vegan/plant-based lifestyle. I was nervous to make it and have a disaster because the instructions are really specific, but I finally tried it this morning.

    First, THANK YOU SO MUCH for making the instructions specific. I made this exactly to the recipe and it is *phenomenal*. Like, completely satisfied my need for that eggy breakfast I used to have before going plant based. I cannot even describe how much I love this recipe!

    Second, to anyone considering trying this recipe: do it! And use all the listed ingredients and follow the instructions just as they are written. Don't modify anything until you've at least tried the recipe as it is!

    Third, I am going to take a shot and add this to make ahead breakfast burritos that I'm freezing for the week. I will come back and let you know how it fares in this adaptation.

    Dear Ashely,

    Thank you so much for this recipe, I will be trying it out for sure!
    I do have a question, that I'm unable to find the answer for online, but I see you have a lot more knowledge about aquafaba, maybe you could help me.
    I was trying to make vegan quiche the other day, based on a similar recipe, using tofu and aquafaba etc. blending everything together in a blender. My problem is that I like to adjust the seasoning while I'm making the food, but when I tried this raw mixture... damn... the smell and the taste was just so bad I didn't want to risk baking it.
    Is that a normal thing using aquafaba? Does the canned dogfood smell and taste go away during baking?
    I'd love to experiment with it, but the initial smell and taste just throws me off and I can't imagine anything delicious turning out of it. :D
    Thank you for the help!

      Hi, Eni! You're welcome for the recipe. It's difficult to say whether or not the smell and taste will shift without having tried the recipe myself. As a general rule, I find that cooking and baking completely counteracts the beany smell and flavor of aquafaba; however, if you're one of those "super tasters," perhaps you'll still be able to detect it. Just depends on your sensitivity and taste preferences. Hope this helps.

    Wow! What a clever idea. I saw this recipe on a recent Ellen Fischer YouTube Video (https://youtu.be/0DwKZtVkbEc). Her mom made them for Christmas morning. I cannot wait to try this. I agree--tofu scramble is good but doesn't really fit the mold for me. Thanks for this recipe!

      Thanks, Meredith! Just saw that she featured this recipe in her xmas vlog—had been wondering where the surge of YouTube traffic had come from. :) Hope this recipe brings a bit more (vegan) eggy realness to your life. Happy cooking and happy New Year!

    Hi, I haven't had a chance to try this yet, but it looks good. I'm just wondering: no one has mentioned using fresh aquafaba as opposed to out of a can. I cooked a half-pan full of chickpeas last night and saved the water (no salt). Will that work the same as the water out of a can? Thank you.

      Hi, Betty! This is a great question. Unfortunately, it's not one I know the answer to as I've never used fresh aquafaba! I'd imagine that the texture of the liquid from cooking is a bit different than the canned liquid. A way to test it would be to see if you can whip it up into peaks (like you would egg whites). If you can, then it should have enough structure to work its magic in this recipe.
