Egg Substitute options to Bind and Lighten Baked Goods
I am seeing more and more people who are on "egg-free" diets for a period of time-- here are some ways to get around the egg-free zone when baking.
I egg is normally about ¼ cup of liquid
- 1 Tbsp finely ground flaxseeds blended with 3 Tbsp water or herb tea until frothy/thick (about 15 mins)
* if you make a large batch, will last approx 3 days in fridge.
*Rule of thumb is 1 part ground flax to 3 parts liquid.
- ½ cup applesauce or mashed banana + ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ c soft tofu, blended with the liquid in the recipe
- 1 tsp “Ener-G Egg Replacer beaten with 2 Tbsp water or herb tea
- 2 Tbsp flour + 1 ½ tsp vegetable oil + ½ tsp. baking powder beaten with 2 Tbsp water or herb tea
