Re: Baking with pecan meal- Eggless muffins

[Guest guest]

Barbara,

I have been able to make eggless muffin by peeling and cooking two apples or

pears and pureeing. I add them in place of eggs. The muffins don't hold

together as well as with eggs, but I found that if I refrigerate them after

baking, they do hold together just fine.

Hope this helps.

Just ordered some pecan meal from Digestive Wellness. In baking, would

you need to

grind it more fine for better results?

Also, I would like to make muffins from BTVC. Could anyone make a suggestion how

to

do this without eggs? What worked best for you and how much to use?? thanks,

barb

Any other advice would be appreciated. I hate to waste ingredients while

learning.

I have found that an absoluting amazing substitue for eggs is avacado and

squash....I put an avacado and about 1/2 cup squash in the mixture. It hs been

the best I have come up with.. and lord knows I have treid everything I could

think of.

Hi - I was just about to post something last night about how awfully

frustrating it is to do this diet without eggs, and then I saw this. I

have TRIED to use just the pureed squash as an egg sub...does NOT work.

Neither does the baking soda sub. I am so close to stopping this diet

for my son b/c I have tried recipes a tons of times, all failed. The

recipes jsut DO NOT cook without eggs. I decided last night that you

just cannot bake without eggs!!!!

So, I see these ideas about eggs subs, but no actual measurements for

specific recipes. Can someone please post some recpies with actual

amounts PLEASE? I am about to lose it!!!!

Also, the " crispy crackers " recipe on pg.82 of " Cooking to HEal Little

Tummies " book from Lucy's Kitchen, which does not require eggs is one I

have now tried and they NEVER turn into crackers!!! They never mesh

together into a cracker, even with more oil added, and with cooking

even over 45min!!! Here it is:

2 cups almond flour

1/4tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

4 T safflower oil

Bake at 275 for 20-30minutes. DOES NOT WORK!!!!!! THe crackers never

mess together, less oil, more oil, higher temps, longer

time....NOTHING!!!!

I have GOT to get working recipes for (1) Loaf Bread (the eggless alomd

bread on pecanbread website is more like soft brownies) (2) Muffins (3)

Crackers, and (4) Pizza Crust. I have tried non-stop for almost 2

weeks now on these things and CANNOT get them to work! Is there

somewhere that I can order some of these things pre-made, WITHOUT EGGS?

I don't know what else to do, unless someone has some recipes for me....

Please help. We are sooooooo close to calling it quits on this diet.

Thanks -

You can get ready-made crackers without eggs from Digestive Wellness. They're

very tasty crackers.

Good Luck to you!

I agree about the crackers. Mine never worked either.

Hi Ellen,

What size avocado are you using? Which type of squash (some are drier

and some are wetter) How many eggs does 1 pureed avocado and 1/2 cup

of squash equal as a substitute?

Which recipes have you succesfully used this in?

Thanks so much
