Wonderful substitute for eggs, especially in cookies, brownies, muffins and breads. It works every time. Store ground flax seeds in a sealed container in the refrigerator or freezer.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons very warm water
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
Directions
Step 1
Whisk water and ground flax seeds together in a bowl until combined, about 30 seconds. Let sit until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Whisk again, about 30 seconds. Let sit until thickened, about 2 minutes more.
Cook’s Note:
If you are nervous about the effect, start by replacing only half of the egg called for in a recipe. The flax seed will affect the color and add a nutty taste (plus great nutrition!) but has no effect on texture, rising or baking times.
