Steps:
- Simmer flax seeds and water in a saucepan for about 5 minutes (or less or more time depending on the amount you are making) or until thick, egg-like consistency has been reached.
- Let cool before using in a recipe.** (About 10 minutes).
- This recipe makes 1 eggs worth, but it can be easily made into a larger quantity using the 1:3 ratio- for example, 1 cup ground flax seeds and 3 cups water (that would make 16 eggs worth) and will keep in the fridge for about 2 weeks.
- Use about 1/4 cup (which is equal to 4Tbs) egg substitute for every egg.
HOMEMADE EGG BEATERS (FOR EGG SUBSTITUTE)
This is a little different than some of the ones on this site as it uses canola oil for a little extra boost in flavor. I have noticed that some of the egg substitutes are calculated wrong on the nutritional breakdown. (I think they calculated the egg whites as whole eggs). These work out to be about 30 calories per 1/4 c. and less than 1 gram of fat. 1/4 c. equals 1 egg; 1/2 c. equals 2 eggs and so on. This freezes well as long as there are no yolks! Old ice cube trays work well for this.

VEGAN "EGG YOLK" SUBSTITUTE
I found the original recipe on betterbatter.org/egg-yolk-subs titute-vegan and modified it based on what I had on hand - namely a blend of chickpea and all-purpose flour (I was using it in shortbreads anyway which used regular flour so they didn't need to be GF). I was shocked at how wonderfully this worked, once I realized that an electric mixer (hand or stand) is not optional for proper consistency!

VEGAN EGG REPLACER / SUBSTITUTE
I often use flax seed and water as an egg replacer, but if you want to avoid a nutty taste, this can be used in baking, too. It is closer to the commercial egg replacers. From Vegetarian Times, January 2007.

EGG SUBSTITUTE
The owner of a small grocery in our village gave me this recipe after he saw me purchasing the expensive Egg Beaters from him time after time. Bless his heart, this is so much better, and can be used in any recipe calling for eggs. A 1/4 of this mix equals one egg. Great scrambled, too. I have keep a small lidded pitcher of the egg substitute in my refrigerator at all times for cooking and baking. It will keep up to 8 days, but you do need to stir it before each use.
