Flax (Flaxseed) Mix
This egg substitute works best in recipes with a darker color where you are replacing one egg rater than two. It works best as a binder and moisturizer, but it is not a leavening agent as are eggs. Therefore, baked goods will be heavier and denser.
Grind seed into a fine powder in a coffee grinder or use flaxseed meal which is already ground. Whisk into boiling water, remove from heat, and let stand for 5 mins. Use as a substitute for eggs - 1/4 c. flax mix equals 1 lrg egg.
