Ousting eggs from baked goods - In recipes for baked goods that have a light, airy texture, replace eggs with an ingredient that provides lift. Any of the following ingredients can replace one whole egg in a recipe:* Half a small, ripe, mashed banana. This substitution gives the food a mild banana flavor, which can be nice in recipes for muffins, cookies, pancakes, and quick breads.*1/4 cup of applesauce, canned pumpkin or squash, or pureed prunes. If you use these foods, know that, depending on the recipe, they may add a hint of flavor. Using fruit purees to replace eggs can make the finished product somewhat denser than the original recipe.
Replacing eggs in casseroles, loaves, burger patties, and main dishes - A good starting point with most recipes in which egg acts as a binder is to use 2 to 3 tablespoons of any of the following ingredients (or a combination of them) to replace one whole egg. If the original recipe calls for two eggs, start with 4 to 6 tablespoons of egg substitute.
* Tomato paste
* Finely crushed breadcrumbs, cracker meal, or matzo meal
* Quick-cooking rolled oats or cooked oatmeal
* Mashed potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, or instant potato flakes
