Examples Of Egg Substitute For Vegans

By Pamela Barnes


A person who delights in taking vegetables only is called a vegetarian. Anything that is related to animal food is not for them either to satisfy their idiosyncrasies or medical advice given by a doctor. Even when others enjoy fish, eggs, meat and others, they find no joy in them but instead prefer to feed on their substitutes. For instance, when baking, egg substitute for vegans is used where eggs should have come in. These substitutes are equally good as they serve the purpose satisfactorily.

An example is an applesauce. Eggs and applesauce can be used just the same way so when one is not available, the other can serve. Because it does not contain fat, it is equally good for those who do not want to gain weight by taking baked foods. Applesauce does not have plenty of calories in it so it remains among the healthiest choices for vegans.

If you think eggs are the best for binding when baking, you are challenged today to try flaxseed. Flaxseed is a good binder and apart from that, its flavor of nuts makes it preferable for whole grain products. You can find them in the market but you have to be careful to avoid the fake ones.

If what you want is something that tastes like eggs, then go for black salt. The sulfur in a little quantity of black salt can be equivalent to what is found in eggs. It is used especially to bake tofu scrambles, vegan egg salad, and quiches. At first, black salt was not easily found in every supermarket but now, the story has changed and you can also find it online to make an order.

If you don't have a problem eating bananas, then you will find it pleasant to replace eggs with them especially when you want to have some black bean brownies. With only one medium-sized banana, you can have the same goodness an egg will supply in the baking. Thus, they are cheaper and better for those who would naturally skip snacks to avoid gaining more weight.

Another binding agent to use for baking to replace eggs is tapioca starch. Apart from binding, it also thickens the dough even when a little is used. It is also cheaper since a teaspoon mixed with water thrice its quantity can do the same as an egg. Its thickening ability makes it a useful ingredient in also making vegan mayonnaise.

Baking soda and vinegar mixed together can also do the work of eggs. The mixture can create bubbles making your baked item to swell and have some air without depending on eggs. You can also count on this if you want something that is cheaper since 1 teaspoon of baking soda and thrice the same amount of vinegar can be used as a substitute for a single egg.

Actually, what to use as substitutes for eggs does not end here. Egg substitutes for vegetarians would be anything of plant origin that can act as a leavening agent, improve its structure and make it taste like fat. Some of them have been treated here and they are not expensive. Thus, whenever you want to go for one, choose something that won't cost you much.
