Vegan Egg Replacement:

For a vegan egg replacer, you can use one of the following options:

• Flaxseed Meal: Mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water to replace 1 egg. Let it sit for a few minutes to thicken.
• Chia Seeds: Similar to flax, mix 1 tablespoon of chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water and let it gel.
• Applesauce: Use ¼ cup of unsweetened applesauce for each egg, which works great in baked goods.
• Mashed Banana: ¼ cup of mashed banana can substitute for an egg, adding moisture and sweetness.
• Aquafaba: The liquid from a can of chickpeas can replace egg whites. Use 3 tablespoons per egg.

Each of these will affect the texture differently, so you can experiment to find your favorite one.

May each bite be a reminder of the love and warmth shared in its making.
