What if we told you it’s possible to enjoy all your favourite dishes without eggs? Thanks to these vegan egg substitutes, you can!

Eggs have many properties in cooking and baking, from binding and thickening to rising and glazing. Mimicking the texture and taste of eggs with plant-based ingredients can require a little more effort, but it can be done.
By learning a few DIY baking hacks and exploring shop-bought vegan egg replacements, you can recreate your favourite scrambled egg recipe or substitute eggs in baking.
Here’s our ultimate guide to vegan egg substitutes for all your baking and cooking endeavours.

Aquafaba (Chickpea brine)
If you’re new to vegan baking, you may be surprised that the brine in cans of chickpeas is something of a wonder ingredient!
Aquafaba is an excellent vegan egg substitute and has similar properties to whipped egg whites. It’s ideal for making vegan meringues, macarons, buttercream, souffle and much more.
Although exact quantities may vary by recipe, here’s a general guideline for replacing eggs with aquafaba:
• 1 tablespoon aquafaba = 1 egg yolk
• 2 tablespoons aquafaba = 1 egg white
• 3 tablespoons aquafaba = 1 whole egg
Flax Eggs
If a recipe calls for a binding agent, you can achieve the gooey consistency of eggs by making flax eggs. This failsafe technique has been a lifesaver for vegan bakers long before egg replacement products hit the supermarkets!
Make a flax egg by mixing ground flaxseed with water, then allow it to sit for a few minutes. When the texture is thick and gloopy, it’s ready to go.
Flax eggs work best in recipes that don’t require rising, such as cookies.
Use this guideline as a rule of thumb when creating a flax egg: 1 egg = 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons of water.
Chia Eggs
Chia eggs are ideal for recipes that require the gel texture that eggs provide. Make a chia egg by mixing water with chia seeds and allow it to set until it has a gloopy consistency.
Use this technique for recipes that don’t require a rising agent, such as cookies.
Here’s a guideline for making chia eggs: 1 egg = 1 tablespoon of chia seeds + 3 tablespoons of water.
Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar
When you’re baking light and fluffy cupcakes and want the perfect texture, you can’t go wrong with the trusted baking soda and apple cider vinegar trick!
This method may require a bit of trial and error to get right, but ¼ teaspoon of baking soda for every 1 tablespoon of vinegar is a good rule of thumb.
Silken Tofu
For recipes that are dense, moist or savoury, silken tofu can work wonders as a vegan egg substitute. Try it in vegan cheesecakes, puddings and mousses.
Generally speaking, 1 egg = ¼ cup silken tofu.
Mashed Banana
Looking for an egg substitute for recipes like muffins or pancakes? Mashed banana is a great baking hack, as the sticky texture of mashed banana works as a binding agent.
1 egg = ½ mashed banana is a general rule of thumb to go by.
