Egg Replacements in Baking

Eggs are an important staple of many baking recipes. They serve several crucial functions such as binding, leavening, and providing moisture to the final product. However, some people are unable to consume eggs for a variety of reasons. If you are one of these people, baking can seem daunting. Fortunately, there are several substitutions that will allow you to continue enjoying your delicious treats without using eggs.

Two popular egg replacements are applesauce and banana. These things work well enough to provide moisture to your dessert, but they are suboptimal replacements overall, because providing moisture is only one function of the egg.

An Ode to Nas

The rain is tapping footsteps on the roof It sounds a lovely dance inside my head

This peaceful aura only serves as proof That I should dodge my work to lie in bed

The pillows pull me in with their behest

A trap that I do not want to escape

The blankets form a most enticing nest

They wrap me in a shroud that won't undrape

I'm tempted further by my furry friends They've taken o'er the mattress in a pile Oh, how I want to nestle in with them! But first, I know that I must work awhile

I promise, bed, I will be back for you

I'll surely nap before the day is through
