Ground flaxseed or chia seed

Both the tiny seeds flaxseed and chia seeds are very nourishing. They are rich in fiber, plant compounds, and omega-3 fatty acids. The seeds can be ground at home, or ready-made seed meals can be bought from a store.

To replace one egg, combine 3 tablespoons (45 grams) of water with 1 tablespoon (7 grams) of ground chia or flaxseed and whisk until the mixture is thickened and completely absorbed. This might result in dense, heavy baked goods. It works well in dishes like pancakes, waffles, muffins, bread, and cookies because it may provide a nuttier flavor. If you don't like the grassy or nutty taste of flaxseeds in baked goods, substitute chia seeds instead for a more neutral flavor.
