Egg Substitutions

In baking, you may use a heaping Tablespoon of soy flour and a Tablespoon of water to equal one egg. Once baked, there is no texture or taste difference.

1 large egg = 1 1/2 large egg whites

1 large egg = 3 Tablespoons egg substitute

1 large egg white = 2 Tablespoons egg substitute

1 large egg white plus 2 teaspoons canola oil = 1 egg (to reduce the cholesterol)

I will occasionally substitute “some” of the whole eggs in a recipe with soy flour or egg whites.  I consider this when a recipe calls for more than 2 eggs.

    Flax can also be used to substitute for eggs — Use 1 tablespoon flax softened in 1/4th cup water.

    And flax has been shown to help balance blood sugars in diabetics. My former boss swears by flax
