1. Apple Sauce
Apple sauce is a product made from cooked apples. It often has a sweet taste or flavor of other spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg.
65 grams (1/4 cup) of apple sauce can substitute for an egg in most recipes, including pies.
According to nutritionists, it is best to use apple sauce without sugar. Otherwise, reduce the sugar or sweetener content in the recipe.
2. Banana mashed
Mashed bananas are another popular food substitute for people with an egg allergy. Besides mashed bananas, you can also use pureed fruits like avocado or pumpkin (cooked). Any fruit puree you use as a substitute for an egg should also be measured at 65 grams.
This replacement is especially suitable when you are preparing baked goods.
3. Flax or chia seeds
Flaxseed or chia seeds are great alternatives for people with egg allergies. They are high in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and other plant compounds.
As an egg substitute, mix 1 tablespoon (about 15 grams) of chia seeds and 3 tablespoons of flaxseed (about 45 grams) with water until the mixture thickens.
