There are plenty of reasons you might be considering using an egg replacement, like following a plant-based or vegan diet, reducing the amount of fat and cholesterol you eat, or if you have an egg allergy. These days, there are plenty of high-quality options available that make it easy to avoid eggs. From the basic flax egg (recipe below) to done-for-you replacements you can pick up from ThriveMarket.com, you’ll be ready for vegan baking in no time.
How to Make a Flax Egg
Vegan bakers know the secret to making tender and moist breads, muffins, and cakes: the flax egg! This egg replacement is made from only two ingredients: ground flaxseed and water. It only takes a few minutes to mix, and it’ll thicken to a similar consistency as a regular egg.
Flax Egg Recipe
Ingredients
1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
2 tablespoons + 1 ½ teaspoons water
Instructions
Combine flaxseed and water in a small bowl; stir. Let rest five minutes to thicken, then add to recipes in place of one egg.
