Question

Answer 1

Yes. There is an actual Ener-G Egg replacer that you can buy at most health food stores. Other things you can use are:

2 tbsp Corn Starch = 1 egg <~~ this is what I use. If it is a little dry you can add a table spoon of oil or a little bit of water until it has the consistency you desire.

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce - 1 egg

1 banana = 1 egg in cakes

Eggs are what holds the bakery together. Sometimes we do not need eggs at all. When baking cookies, I just put in some water and they turn out perfectly. For cakes I use the corn starch.

Here is a link to some other interesting alternatives. :)

Answer 2

The following has been copied from www.about.com and was written by Jolinda Hackett.

Egg replacer is a must if you’re baking without eggs. While many people use flax seeds, bananas or even silken tofu to replace the eggs in a baked recipe, I prefer Ener-G egg replacer. Ener-G is economical and easy to use. Made from a variety of raising ingredients, egg replacer can be used in cookies, cakes and brownies as well as pancakes, waffles and more. Ener-G egg replacer is also certified Kosher.
Even if you’re not vegan, using egg replacer while baking will help lower your cholesterol intake and, as one box is the equivalent of 100 eggs, its a good investment as well.

Answer 3

there are various egg substitutes. a million/2 banana or some million/4 cup of mashed banana in keeping with egg a million TBS applesauce different fruit purees artwork yet i'm uncertain of the right measurements (i might wager comparable because of the fact the banana) you additionally can attempt "vegan eggs" that are made with chia seed or flaxseed (a million TPS floor chia or flax seeds +3 TBS Water =a million egg) combination properly in a blender i do no longer understand what "egg substitutes" are offered interior the keep... i might reason they're some unusual processed very unnatural fit for human intake substance. I especially advise applesauce or banana. notwithstanding, the vegan eggs artwork super too. there are various internet site that contain this tips in recent times.

Answer 4

One banana per egg works and it's easy, but tastes like banana.
Or use some ground flax seeds (aka flax meal).
Different kinds of starches will do the trick.
Peraonally, I make cake, bread, cookies, pancakes, ... and never use eggs, I just think that there is no need for eggs. Or you can get a store-bought egg-replacer powder from the store that uses some already figured out starches for replacement.

Answer 5

The combination of 3 T. water, 3 T. oil, 2 tsp. baking powder; mixed together is the substitution for 2 eggs.

My Sister-in-Law is allergic to EVERYTHING under the sun. I use the above to sub for eggs when I bake her non-wheat, non-soy, non-dairy, non-everything recipes.

Answer 6

I have used organic applesauce (Gravenstein) in place of eggs - about an eighth of a cup per Large egg per recipe. There may need to be a small adjustment in the other liquids depending on the weather (warm or cold, dry or damp).
