If you ever want to substitute eggs in a baking recipe, use 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons warm water, per egg. Whip using in a blender, immersion blender or food processor until it reaches a creamy, egg yolk consistency. Great when baking for vegan friends or if you find yourself out of eggs.

Love this tip! I made my first batch of cookies using a flax egg yesterday – they turned out great!
I love your tips of the week! 🙂
Really?! So cool, looking forward to trying this, thanks!
great tip… I also just bought and tried Ener G Egg Replacer for the first time. My toddler is allergic. Tried them in zucchini quinoa patties and it worked well! (my adapted recipe for those is here… YUM: http://cleangreeneatrepeat.com/2012/07/18/garlic-harvesting-2nd-csa-share-and-quinoa-patties/ )
i really really really want to make zuchinni loaf but i refuse to use tons of oil can i substitute applesauce?
I haven’t played around with subbing applesauce for oil so I can’t give a good answer. Anyone else tried?
sandra, you can sub applesauce for oil but the consistency won’t be exactly the same!
