I just checked on a food substitution chart and it said you can substitute 1 tbsp meringue powder plus 2 tbsp water for each egg white in a recipe. Otherwise there's a vegan egg replacer called Ener-G that contains no eggs whatsoever. You can learn more about that here. -------------------- "Anyone can exercise, but this kind of lethargy takes real discipline." -Garfield Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Egg whites in recipes       #48470 - 03/06/04 11:12 AM Edit Reply Quote torbetta Reged: 01/24/03 Posts: 1451 Loc: New York I've used the vegan egg replacers before and they work pretty good. I have a friend that is vegan and I believe she told me before she would leave out eggs in recipes. I know she does that for pancakes. I don't know if it would work with everything though.

I think you use 1/2 -1 T soy powder, add a little water so it's the consistency of eggs to make one egg. You might want to do an internet search to make sure 1 T soy powder equals 1 egg as it's been a while since I've done this. janet Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Egg whites in recipes       #48608 - 03/07/04 05:58 PM Edit Reply Quote Karin Reged: 02/11/03 Posts: 483 Loc: Southern California There are several posts regarding egg substitutions on the recipe index, go to the bottom of this page for the subs: Egg Substitutes Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Egg whites in recipes       #48629 - 03/07/04 09:06 PM Edit Reply Quote eilene Reged: 03/06/04 Posts: 11 Loc: Florida Hi Kree!
