Baking without eggs is really challenging, but Flaxseed eggs can replace them in baked goods. I only use them if the recipe only calls for one or two eggs. I haven’t tried replacing three or more eggs with flaxseeds in a recipe. More than three would definitely make a gooey end result. Perhaps you like spoon bread? LOL!

Use this recipe to bake without eggs! And of course there’s a bonus! Flaxseeds are a super food, chock full of Omega-3 brain boosting, immune boosting, antinflammatory oil. One serving of flaxseed meal contains 1800 mg. of omega-3! That’s 50% of the oil in flaxseeds! They are also high in fiber and antioxidant Lignans. Food is medicine!

Ingredients

1 T. Flaxseed Meal
3 T. water

Instructions

1. In a small bowl combine the flaxseed meal and water and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes. The flaxseed meal will soak up most of the water and become slightly gooey. Sounds and looks kinda weird but it works really well. Give it a shot!
