You can use this Chia Seed mixture as an egg substitute in vegan baking. It forms a jelly like substance, which acts as a glue. It is used to bind instead of eggs.
This vegan egg substitute will be the equivalent to using one egg in a recipe, although it is equally good for non-vegans, if you’ve run out of eggs!
Chia Seeds keep for ages and are always a handy staple to keep in the cupboard.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 3 tbsp Water
Instructions
- Mix 1 tbsp Chia Seeds with 3 tbsp Water and let it stand for 5 minutes, until it is a jelly-like substance.
