Eggs
Looking to reduce or eliminate animal products from your meals without sacrificing taste or texture? You’re in luck! From fluffy scrambled “eggs” to creamy, tangy mayo, there are now plenty of plant-based alternatives that taste just like the real thing—and often even better!
Egg alternatives
Whether you’re craving a hearty breakfast or a binding agent for baking, here are some of the top options for plant-based eggs.
Flax eggs
Flax seeds are great for baking! Mix one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of water, let it sit, and voilà—a binding agent that works in pancakes, muffins, and more.
Egg replacer
Egg replacers are versatile, plant-based powders designed to mimic the binding and leavening properties of eggs in baking and cooking. Popular brands like Bob’s Red Mill and Ener-G offer easy-to-use egg replacer mixes made from ingredients like potato starch and tapioca flour.
Just Egg
Flax seeds are great for baking! Mix one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of water, let it sit, and voilà—a binding agent that works in pancakes, muffins, and more.
Tofu scramble
Firm or silken tofu mixed with a pinch of turmeric, black salt, and spices creates a tasty, protein-packed scramble that rivals traditional eggs.
