Due to the eggs skyrocketed price the Community Connections brings you some tips and substitutes. There’s no need to panic! We’ve got some of egg substitutes that might come in handy, and plenty of them can be found right in your pantry. Here, you’ll find swaps that work for breads, cookies, meatballs, and so much more. For recipes that use eggs as a binder or for moisture, substitutes like applesauce or oil can do the trick. If the eggs act as a leavening agent, try a combination of vinegar and baking powder. It’s worth noting that the finished product won’t be exactly the same as when you use real eggs. The texture may be a bit different, but overall, you should expect the flavor to remain intact. These egg substitutes will do the trick. Because nothing should come between you and your next baking project—not even a few missing eggs!

It makes a great binder on its own, but you can also whip the liquid to create an egg-free meringue. 3 tablespoons aquafaba = 1 egg Vinegar + Baking Soda Eggs are often used as leaveners to make your baked goods rise so you’ll need a replacement that won’t leave your final product flat. This old-school science project will work. The vinegar and baking soda bubble up to create a leavening agent in your baked goods. 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar + 1 teaspoon baking soda = 1 egg Mashed Banana A mashed banana will impart its own flavor and sweetness to any baking recipe.

Unsweetened plain applesauce works best for the swap, but if sweetened or flavored, just cut back on other sweeteners in the recipe. 1/4 cup unsweetened plain applesauce = 1 egg Yogurt If dairy is not an issue, then using yogurt in place of eggs is ideal for baked goods where there’s another leavening agent at work. It’ll help with binding and moisture. Make sure to clearly show that the finished product is “dairy”. 1/4 cup yogurt = 1 egg Chia See Similar to the “fle brownies.
