🥚Eggs🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For egg-free needs, swap the batter mix for an egg-free crispy coating or skip that layer and use a simple seasoned dusting. For dairy-free, use plant-based sour cream and a melting vegan cheese; for gluten-free, choose a gluten-free coating or flour blend.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, charred corn, or black beans to balance the rich, cheesy arepas. A bright citrusy drink or a light salsa on the side also works well with the savory, tangy toppings.
