Q&A for How to Replace Eggs in Your Cooking

Yes, use apple sauce or bananas in place of the egg.

Water and salt. Put both in a bowl together and just dip your foods into the salt water, then flour, then back into salt water, and back into flour. Then fry.

You can try using unsweetened apple sauce, as it's thick and it should not add any unwanted flavors.

Yes, you can use egg whites as substitutes in your favorite recipes.

1/3 cup applesauce per egg.

Replacing eggs used in bread can be difficult and it is often better to find a different recipe. If the eggs are used for glazing, milk or oil can be substituted. Ground flax seed might work in some cases. Egg replacement products available commercially might work but would need to be trialed. Any bread recipe requiring 3 or more eggs will not work without the eggs, in which case you do need to find an alternative recipe or risk a poor outcome when using a substitute.

Some icing recipes use corn syrup instead of egg white, if you want an icing that dries shiny and hard.

You can use one whole egg, and then get another egg, crack it, mix the yolk and egg whites, then split it in half.

No, tapioca is not a good egg replacement.

Replace the egg with xanthum gum and replace the milk with water and a small amount of oil to equal the original liquid measurement. For each egg to be replaced, whip together 1/4 teaspoon of xanthum gum and 1/4 cup of water.

Add starch. Corn and potato starches are the best, but tapioca works as well.
