Made from chickpea flour, the vegan egg patty is an amazing base for this savory Chickpea Patty Breakfast Sandwich.
Let's talk breakfast: Savory or sweet? I usually prefer something sweet for breakfast. Depending on the time of year, I might have a green smoothie or smoothie bowl, pancakes, oatmeal or banana bread with PB+J.
From time to time, I also crave savory things in the morning like tofu scramble on bread. Today I have a sandwich recipe for you which you could make for breakfast or whenever you your heart (or stomach) desires a satisfying sandwich with a hearty chickpea patty or vegan "egg" patty.
Chickpea "Egg" Patty Ingredients
- Chickpea Flour - It has a naturally savory flavor that works well for "eggy" recipes.
- Nutritional Yeast - Also called nooch, it will give your vegan egg patties a savory, slightly cheesy flavor.
- Kala Namak - The key ingredient. Also known as black salt, Kala namak has a high sulfur content which results in an egg-like flavor when added to dishes. You can usually find it at Indian markets, health-food stores or online.
- Spices - Turmeric for color, sweet paprika, garlic, onion and fresh herbs, if you like.
How To Serve The Sandwich
What you top it with is up to you and your preferences. I like fresh and juicy tomato slices, crunchy lettuce, maybe some avocado and/or vegan "cheese" slices and some type of spread.
Vegan mayo and hummus are two wonderful options.
Also give my Tomato Jam a try. It is both savory and sweet and thus adds another layer of flavor.
When you plan on making the sandwich in the future, then get started on my Fermented Vegan Cream Cheese. This will add a wonderful tangy touch to your breakfast sandwich.
Obviously, you can also simply prepare the eggy chickpea patties (no need to stick with the patty shape - how about a chickpea omelette?) and skip the bread. Serve it with a side of veggies, a dip of choice and you're good to go when you want to keep it on the lighter side.
