I need and egg free cookie recipe?

Question

I have a nephew who ends up in hospital if he eats eggs. (he's only 4) Since I'm in charge of Christmas dinner this year I want to make cookies that all the other kids (mine and numerous cousins who don't have food allergies included) can enjoy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Answer 3

Many types of bakery do not even need the eggs. You can often leave the eggs out and maybe put in a little water.

Here are some egg substitutes from a recipe website: (allrecipies.com perhaps)

*Ener-G Egg Replacer- follow directions (can be found in most health food stores)

*2 tbs corn (or potato) starch= 1 egg

*2 tbs arrowroot flower= 1 egg

*1 heaping tbsp soy powder + 1 tbs cornstarch + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg

*1 banana = 1 egg in cakes

I often use the cornstarch and a little bit of water if the dough is dry and have wonderful cookies. I also hear that some people use applesauce.

Answer 4

An easy egg substitute is 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons water, and 2 teaspoons of baking powder for each egg in the recipe. It's best to add the baking soda first, then the other two as quickly as possible, then mix it up while the baking powder fizzes. Just in case you have some specific recipe in mind, or whatever, it's always useful. And remember to check the other ingredients in whatever you're making to make sure that they have no eggs either!

Answer 5

You can use this egg replacer for any cookie recipe that you like:

Quick & Easy Baker's "Egg"

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons water

Directions:

Simply add all four ingredients and whisk together until foamy [about a minute or so].

This is perfect for any sort of recipe. I've found this is equivalent to about 2 whole eggs.

Serves: Equal to 2 eggs

Preparation time: 2 minutes

Answer 6

well, I know an egg free cookie recipe but I don't know if I can explain it very well. I hope you understand.Here goes:
500grammes biscuits( but not sweet biscuits, hard biscuits) - sorry
I don't speak english that good
500 grammes(a pack) butter
1 cup water( 250g cup)
1 cup sugar(250g cup)
vanilla sugar(I don't know if that's what it's called)
rom essence(I don't know if that's what it's called)
cocoa( after your preference, depends on how coloured you want the cookies to be)
shredded coconut

The biscuits are minced with the meat mincing machine and put into a bowl. Then you dice the butter up and add it to the biscuits. You also add the water, the sugar, the vanilla sugar and the rom essence. Then you mix all of them together.After this you add cocoa as much as you want (if you want the cookies to be darker you put more cocoa). At the end you shape the mixture into little balls and roll them through the shredded coconut. Then you put them in the fridge until they get a little hard. Bon apetit! :P

I hope you understood what I wrote and I hope you'll succeed to make the cookies. I swear they are delicious(if you make them the right way). Bye and good luck!

Answer 7

You can use the nestle tollhouse recipe on the back of the bag and replace the eggs with 1/2 cup of applesauce. I usually add an extra cup of flour too!! No one will ever know they are egg free. I make them all the time. Most butter cookie recipes are also egg free.

Answer 8

You can use cornstarch instead of Egg in
most recipes that call for egg. What do U think
Vegans do? To replace one medium egg use
mixture of: 1 1/2 tblsp corn starch. 1/8 tblsp
baking pwdr. A few drops oil! If you're making a cake increase the baking powder amount to make sure your cake rises. It won't
rise as well as cake with egg but does come close enough!

Answer 9

Sorry, I'm at work so I don't have any recipes handy. I am a vegan, so I have to be careful about ingredients too.
However, since you need to be concerned about eggs, maybe you can still use all of your favorite recipes except using egg replacer instead of eggs. Egg replacer is not like 'egg beaters' or egg substitutes. It is sold in bulk stores or vegan stores. It is called 'egg replacer' and you combine a couple teaspoons of egg replacer and water instead of using eggs.

That way, you can give the little guy any cookies you want to make and still be egg-free.

Answer 10

There are several here : http://www.recipesforvegans.co.uk/baking.html including:

Ginger Biscuits

Ingredients

2 oz vegan margarine
1 oz sugar
4oz flour
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Blend the margarine with the sugar until it is a smooth paste. Add the ginger and flour and blend thoroughly. If it too dry add a teaspoon of water - it should come together in a dough. Roll out on a floured surface and cut out using a cookie cutter. Place on a greased baking sheet in a 200 degree oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Answer 11

This is the best recipe for chocolate chip cookies I have ever come across and is amazing as well as egg and dairy free! My friends and family agree. It is also superbly simple and quick.

Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached flour
2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp.salt
cinnamon to taste (optional- I don't usually use it)
chocolate chips (I use dark chocolate chips- the cookies are already sweet) chips - put in as many as you like
1 cup turbinado sugar
1/2 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup water
Parchment paper (optional-makes it easier)

Directions:

Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature. It will work if they're not at room temp but it works MUCH better if they are. Preheat oven to 350.

In a large bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon (if you choose). Add chips. Make a well in the center and set aside.

In a medium size bowl mix sugar and oil. Mix it well. Add the vanilla and then add the water. Mix it well. Add the wet to the well in the dry. Mix it well. Add more chips if you need to. Spoon onto ungreased cookie sheets (or cookie sheets with parchment paper on them). The shape that you put them on the sheet in is the shape they will basically come out in, if you put them in a round shape, they come out basically round, if you put them in a flatter more traditional shape, they'll come out that way. Put them in the oven. Bake for 5 minutes and then flip and rotate the sheets.(top to bottom,and 180 degree rotation) Bake another 4 minutes and check them, cook for increments of 2 minutes after as needed. I'm at a high altitude and generally bake around 12 min.

The cookies are done when they seem a little bit softer then you want them to be. They will harden up some as they cool.

If you did use parchment paper...
Slide the parchment paper off of the pan and let the cookies cool on the counter on the parchment paper, then slide them off the parchment paper. (you can reuse the parchment paper when making multiple batches)
If you didn't use parchment paper...
Take them out when they are done and move them to wire cooling racks. If they split or come apart when you try to remove them let them sit on the pan for 2 minutes before transferring them to the racks.

each batch yields about 2 dozen cookies

I think that the turbinado sugar, oil, vanilla, and water, basically function as an egg substitute, but haven't tested this. Good luck, I truly, truly recommend this recipe.
