Key Ingredients

You can find the full printable recipe, including ingredient quantities, below. But first, here are some explanations of ingredients and steps to help you make this recipe perfect every time.

  • Just Egg — We’ll use a container and a half of Just Egg for this recipe. Don’t worry; for the remaining half of the carton, you can use it to make a vegan omelet!
  • Baking powder — To create a fluffy filling, we’ll add some baking powder to the plant-based egg mixture.
  • Flour — We also want the filling to be firm enough to slice. That’s why we’ll add all-purpose or gluten-free flour. I’ve tested both, and it works great!
  • Seasoning — To make the egg mixture flavorful, this recipe calls for salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dehydrated onions (substitute onion powder).
  • Sweet potato — You’ll need a medium sweet potato,peeled and chopped into 1/2-inch cubes
  • Veggies — I like to add a mixture of chopped red bell pepper,broccoli florets, chopped red onions, cherry tomatoes, and fresh spinach.
  • Cheese — We’ll add one cupof vegan cheddar shreds

Frequently-Asked Questions

Can you freeze a frittata with Just Egg?

Frittatas are freezer-friendly, and a Just Egg version is no different. Some of the veggies may not thaw with their texture intact, but overall the dish will be just as delicious once thawed and heated.

Can you add cauliflower to frittatas?

You can add various vegetables to your frittatas, including cauliflower, broccoli, and even zucchini. Cut your cauliflower into small florets and then roast them, so they are tender in your baked frittata.

FAQs

Can you use Just Egg as an egg substitute? ›

Yes, with some exceptions. Their website says “Just Egg works in a wide variety of baking applications, with a few exceptions, such as light, airy cakes and meringues.” It also says their product can be used as a 1:1 substitution for regular egg in a recipe—so about 3 tablespoons of Just Egg is equal to one large egg.

How does the frittata get its fluffy texture? ›

Tips for Fluffy Eggs
  1. Using the immersion blender creates air in the eggs which will produce a light and fluffy result.
  2. Heavy cream gives a creamy texture. You can add up to 1/2 cup per dozen eggs.
  3. Don't overcook! Overcooking eggs makes them rubbery.

How much Just Egg equals 1 egg? ›

Just Egg resembles real liquid eggs with its golden color. The product's ingredients include water, mung bean protein isolate and canola oil, plus a variety of spices, natural flavors and thickeners to yield an egg-like texture. (Mung bean is a legume.) A 3-tablespoon serving of Just Egg equals one egg.

Can I use Just Egg as a binder? ›

Just Egg liquid is extremely versatile. In addition to making cookies, cakes, muffins, and breads, Just Egg liquid also works great as a binder when making vegan and plant-based meatloaf, meatballs, and even burgers.

Why is JUST Egg not vegan? ›

Just Egg does not contain any animal ingredients. Therefore, it's technically vegan. However, it is not labeled as vegan. Instead, it is labeled as plant-based.

What is the best tasting egg substitute? ›

Both yogurt and buttermilk are good substitutes for eggs. It's best to use plain yogurt, as flavored and sweetened varieties may alter the flavor of your recipe. You can use 1/4 cup (60 g) of yogurt or buttermilk for each egg that needs to be replaced.

Why did my frittata turn GREY? ›

The longer you cook an egg, the more likely it is to form a green coating on the yolk. Submerging an egg in ice water immediately stops the cooking. The green-gray color (and the whiff of sulfur smell that often accompanies it) comes from the reaction of iron in the egg yolk and sulfur in the egg white.

What kind of cheese is best for frittata? ›

Go for high moisture cheeses

According to Cheese Science, high moisture cheeses like mozzarella and smoked Gouda are great melting cheeses that give frittatas their desired texture. Meanwhile, a low moisture cheese like Parmesan won't melt in the oven, especially when it's surrounded by a mixture of eggs.

Why are IHOP omelettes so fluffy? ›

Drum roll, please! The secret to super fluffy IHOP omelets is… buttermilk pancake batter. For what it's worth, the IHOP menu does indicate in small text at the top of the page that their omelets contain pancake batter, but such a detail can go unnoticed by even the most dedicated IHOP eaters.

Does JUST Egg need to be refrigerated? ›

Just Egg is located in the refrigerated section and does need to be kept in there when it is not in use. The product comes with a screw on/off lid and you do not need to use all of it at one time; however, when you are finished, it does need to go back in the refrigerator.

Can I use sour cream as a binder instead of eggs? ›

Sourcream Tip

SOUR CREAM can also be used in place of yoghurt. Since sour cream has a higher fat content it can actually mimic the fats in an egg and make our recipe extra rich and moist. One egg can be replaced by ¼ cup of sour cream. It acts as just the perfect egg substitute!

Can I use mayonnaise instead of eggs as a binder? ›

There are more than a few reasons why mayo makes sense as a substitute for egg wash. Since they both share the same main ingredient (eggs), they function in very similar ways. Much like egg wash acts as a binding agent to help seasonings and breadcrumbs stick to meat, creamy mayonnaise also manages to do the same.

Can you freeze JUST Egg? ›
