The best egg substitute for pancakes?

There are many foods that can be used as egg substitutes for pancakes… but what is the absolute better under? When we make pancakes or vegan baked goods, we usually substitute a flax egg. A flaxseed egg is ground flaxseed mixed with water, resulting in a gel-like substance that acts as a binding agent. But we don’t always have flaxseed on hand. But here we wanted to make a no-egg pancake recipe, using a substitute that’s always on hand in the pantry.

The best egg substitute for pancakes? Peanut Butter – or any nut or seed butter! This replacement does several things: It reproduces wealth Egg count, moisture content and acts as a binder to hold pancakes together. Best of all, it adds a subtle nuttiness to the flavor that makes them irresistible! The substitution rate? 1 egg equals 2 tbsp nut butter.

Notes on nut butters

You can use any type of nut butter or seed butter in these eggless pancakes! Peanut butter is the most common thing in our pantry, but we stock several different types of nut butters. Be sure to use creamy nut butter in any case: this will allow it to blend into the texture of the pancakes. Here are some nut butter options:

• peanut butter: Peanut butter has the strongest nutty flavor! Try it yourself.
• almond butter: Almond butter is a bit more neutral. Try it yourself.
• cashew butter: Cashew butter also has a mild taste! Try it yourself.
• Pecan Butter: Pecan butter works too! Try it yourself.
• sunflower butter: Sunflower butter is a great option for nut allergies!

Cooking Tips: The key is weak and slow!

The last thing on your mind about these egg-free pancakes: some cooking tips! Since the texture is a little different than a regular pancake, be careful not to overheat. Here’s what you need to know about cooking these pancakes:

• Low and slow is key! Make sure the heat is low to medium low! These eggless pancakes can burn more easily than the standard pancakes. Cook them too high and they will turn brown on the outside and gooey on the inside. But go low and slow and they will come out perfect.
• When to change? When bubbles form and burst. When is the right time to flip a pancake? Wait for bubbles to form on the surface and begin to burst. Sometimes it seems like you’ve waited too long, but trust us! This trick always works.
