Is there a substitute I can use for the Eggs? Thank you in advance ~ René
Rene,
You can use Ener-G Egg Replacer or 1/2 cup vegetable oil, or 2 tablespoons of cornstarch + 1/4 cup of water whisked together than added to recipe. I can not guarantee that you will end up with the same quality recipe. Good luck and I hope it works out for you.
