Q: What do I use to substitute eggs in recipes?
A: Egg substitutes vary depending on the type of dish that you are preparing. For scrambled egg dishes, such as breakfast scrambled eggs, quiches, and frittatas, tofu and various seasonings can be used. For baking, several types of egg substitutes can be used, such as:
Flax seeds - 1 T ground seeds + 3 T water = 1 egg
Silken tofu - 1/4 Cup blended tofu = 1 egg
Commercial egg replacer (Such as Ener-G or Bob's Red Mill) - 1 1/2 T + 2 T water = 1 egg (Or follow directions on package)
Bananas - 1/2 banana blended = 1 egg
Soy yogurt - 1/4 Cup yogurt = 1 egg
Applesauce - 1/4 cup = 1 egg
If you do not have any of these ingredients on hand, you can make a commercial-style egg substitute out of common household ingredients:
1 tsp baking powder + 1/2 tsp baking soda + 2 T flower + 3 T water = 1 egg
