Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 round heaping Tbsp. ground flaxseed (flaxseed meal)

Instructions

  1. Add flaxseed to water and stir. Let sit for about 5 minutes and allow to thicken. Use in place of 1 egg.

Notes

*I did not invent this recipe, but have adapted for my own use from time to time. I discovered it early on in my plant-based cooking journey and it’s pretty much the industry standard for vegan egg replacers.
