This breakfast is something in-between a savoury French toast and scrambled eggs on toast so I wasn't sure what to call it. "Eggy" toast is the best I could come up with.
Anyway, It's toast, spread with an eggy chickpea flour mixture, grilled with asparagus spears on top and it is so delicious!
It makes the perfect, comforting spring breakfast and can be ready in under 15 minutes.
Serve it on it's own or add some extra grilled veggies on the side. Grilled mushrooms and tomatoes are amazing with this toast!
I used sourdough bread because that's my favourite but feel free to use wholemeal, plain white or whatever takes your fancy.

I love using chickpea flour for vegan, eggy creations! This toast looks so delicious, and simple, to boot!

Looks delicious! I have been eating asparagus with everything lately. So good!
Aimee says
Me too, trying to make the most of it before it's out of season!

What a beautiful way to get in some veggies at breakfast that isn't a green smoothie. I recently saw a vegan hollandaise sauce that I'm imagining would be delicious poured over top of this!
Aimee says
Oh my goodnes, yes! Hollondaise sauce would be amazing with this. Good thinking :-)

I'm reading this with my three-year-old, and he's sad that his toast doesn't have asparagus on it this morning!
Aimee says
Haha! That's adorable :D
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
So elegant! This would be a perfect savory brunch for mother's day!
And I would totally go savory for breakfast if I had this! (While i'm eating my chocolate nut buttery oatmeal right now :P )
Aimee says
How about this for your main breakfast and then chocolate oatmeal afterwards for "dessert" breakfast? That should be a thing.
