Substitute for eggs (found from several sources on tribe.net)

[Guest guest]

What is a good substitute for eggs?

 

Ener-G Egg Replacer - follow directions on box.

2 Tbsp corn starch = 1 egg

2 Tbsp arrowroot flour = 1 egg

2 Tbsp potato starch = 1 egg

1 heaping Tbsp soy powder + 2 Tbsp water = 1 egg

1 Tbsp soy milk powder + 1 Tbsp cornstarch + 2 Tbsps water = 1 egg.

1 Tbsp flax seeds + 1 cup water = 1 egg. Blend seeds and water for 1 to 2

minutes

until desired consistency.

1 banana = 1 egg in cakes.

 

Homemade egg substitute recipe

 

Homemade egg substitutes are less expensive and just as satisfactory. They also

have few calories. Here's a low cholesterol egg substitute recipe:

 

1 tablespoon of nonfat dry milk powder

2 egg whites from large eggs

4 drops of yellow food color

 

Sprinkle powdered milk over egg whites, then beat them with fork until smooth.

Add food color, and beat until blended. This makes one-fourth cup, which is

equal to 1 large egg. If you use this homemade substitute for scrambled eggs,

cook it in vegetable oil or margarine so the eggs won't be too dry.

 

 

 

 

 

the other non-egg recipe i have used for baking is herbal and more natural, from

the good herb book:

create a strong brew tea from 1 cup boiling water to 1 tbs of calendula petals.

strain. and pour tea into small saucepan.

add 1 tbs of flaxseed. bring to a boil. boil for 3min.

transfer to food blender. puree for 30 sec till seeds are coarsely crushed.

strain seeds out.

you are left with a gooey mixture that acts as egg. if you cook a little longer

and use stronger tea it get's gooeier. let cool before using.

1/4 cup = one egg

 

 

 

 

 

Much easier:

½ -1 banana = 1 egg in cookies (haven't tried other things)

1tbs Wheat gluten + 1 tbs H2O = 1 egg in lots of stuff

Flaxseed meal mixed with water

tofu

 

Eggs aren't very necessary. There's tons of stuff to replace them. neither is

butter. I've made tons of dishes by just figuring out what the non veg

ingredient does and replacing it with something that does something similar.

 

 

 

I've even had success using things like blended tomatoes (in carrot cake),

blended peaches (in pancakes), etc. Many times the eggs can simply be left out.
