Recipe: How to Make a Flax Egg or Chia Egg (egg substitute for baking)

Tips and Tricks - Cooking

Flax or Chia Eggs

To help bind batters for quick breads and muffins without using eggs, you can use ground flaxseeds or ground chia seeds.

For each egg, whisk 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds or chia seeds into 3 tablespoons of warm water and let the mixture sit until it becomes thick and gelatinous.

It's an inexpensive, effective binder, with the added benefit of providing uber-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
