What do you when not have enough eggs for a recipe?
Here are a few tips for substituting eggs in a recipe when you don't have enough:
1. Use a flaxseed or chia seed egg replacer: Mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed meal or chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to gel. This mixture can replace one egg in a recipe.
2. Use a commercial egg replacer: There are several commercial egg replacers available in the market that are made from a blend of plant-based ingredients. Follow the package instructions to substitute eggs in your recipe.
3. Use aquafaba (the liquid from a can of chickpeas): Whisk 3 tablespoons of aquafaba until it becomes frothy and resembles egg whites. This can replace one egg in a recipe.
4. Use a mashed banana: A mashed ripe banana can be used to replace one egg in baked goods. It adds moisture and sweetness to the recipe.
5. Use applesauce: Applesauce can be used to replace one egg in baked goods. It adds moisture and a little sweetness.
6. Use silken tofu: Silken tofu can be used to replace eggs in certain recipes, especially those that require a binding agent. It provides moisture and a neutral flavor.
7. Use yogurt: Yogurt can be used to replace eggs in some recipes, especially those that require a binding agent. It adds moisture and a little tang.
8. Use vinegar and baking soda: Mix 1 teaspoon of vinegar with 1 teaspoon of baking soda. This mixture can replace one egg in a recipe. It creates a reaction that provides lift and binds ingredients.
9. Use cornstarch: Cornstarch can be used as an egg replacer in certain recipes, such as custards and puddings. It provides thickening and binding properties.
10. Consider adapting the recipe: If your recipe only requires a small amount of egg and you don't have enough, consider omitting it or finding an alternative recipe that doesn't require eggs.
Please note that some egg substitutions may alter the texture or flavor of your recipe, so it's important to choose the best substitute based on the specific recipe and desired results.
