Success with egg substitutes (flax, yogurt)

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

 

I'm still fairly new at gluten free vegan baking, but have had some successes

that I wanted to share. For example, last week I made a Breads From Anna Herb

Bread (from a mix) in my bread machine. I used flaxseed meal and water instead

of eggs and it came out great. Today I made a Bob's Red Mill Homemade Wonderful

Bread Mix (that's what it is called on the package)and I used a combination of

flaxseed meal (1 tbsp) and water (3 tbsp) and then for the rest of the egg

needed I used soy yogurt. The bread came out perfect. Last night, I made

flatbreads and again used a combo of the flaxseed meal/water and soy yogurt -

again, perfect.

 

So, for those of you wanting to try using egg replacements, I just wanted you to

know that I'm having a lot of success. In a way, it's like relearning how to

bake from scratch! And I've had my share of disasters! But I guess I'm on a roll

(no pun intended)!!!.

 

best,

I bought a package of the homemade wonderful bread mix and I was thinking of

trying to make buns. I have a set of donut pans and thought the pan for solid

donuts (no hole) would work for buns. Has anybody tried this? I'll try your egg

sub method and see how well the buns work out.

I also thought of trying to make bagles with the cinnamon raisin bread mix

(Bob's red mill) and the regular hole donut pan. To make them more bagle like

I'd have to experiment with it, but I think it could work. Any ideas?

Thanks for the egg tips!
