30 Easy Eggless Recipes
Want to make your favorite foods without using up precious, pricey eggs?
We've got you covered.
From breakfast to desserts, we've been making delicious foods at our house without eggs for over seventeen years.
See below for some of our most popular eggless recipes!
When I saw egg prices nearing five dollars even at Aldi recently,
I knew we had to share our popular eggless recipes with the world as soon as possible.
Believe it or not, you can make delicious cookies, cake, brownies, waffles, and more with absolutely no eggs.
I'll show you how because we've been doing it for years!
And so have our readers with food allergies.
Save your eggs for omelets and to scramble.
But for everything else, see our list of egg-free recipes below.
There are so many eggless treats to be made.
And yes, they taste delicious. You won't even miss the egg!
THREE WAYS TO BAKE WITHOUT EGGS
Basically, there are three ways I get around egg in my recipes.
- no egg at all
- unsweetened applesauce for egg
- ground flax mixed in water for egg
I've never used expensive egg replacer because these three methods work!
I'll break our egg-free recipes into these three categories so you can quickly choose what works for you.
If you aren't dairy-free, just use your dairy ingredients like milk and butter if our recipes call for it.
Here are our favorite tried-and-true recipes without egg!
TYPICAL NO-EGG RECIPES
These recipes don't normally call for egg, but sometimes we just need a quick reminder of how easy they are.
1. RICE CRISPY TREATS - We make ours extra gooey and the sprinkles really bring them up a notch.
2. SMORES BARS - If you want to impress guests, this is the way to go. These smores bars are always a huge hit!
3. NO-BAKE COOKIES - Yes, typically cookies call for eggs but not these! They don't even call for an o ven, and they are my son's favorite.
4. PUPPY CHOW - Another crowd pleaser and no baking needed. But watch out, it's totally addicting!
5. FRENCH BREAD - Yes, it's easy to buy in stores, but it so good and satisfying to make hot and fresh in your own kitchen...especially when it's this easy.
RECIPES THAT TAKE NO EGG AT ALL
These are recipes that typically for egg, but we make them without and nobody can tell:
6. WAFFLES - These are very freezer friendly, too, so feel free to freeze some for later.
7. PANCAKES - You'll see these are very similar to the waffle recipe. So basic and easy.
8. SCONES - Chocolate chips or frozen blueberries are delicious in these.
9. BREAKFAST COOKIES - Unique and so good, like soft granola bars. Very popular here.
10. PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS - We make these for all our road trips. So filling and perfect for breakfast or snack.
11. CHOCOLATE CAKE - Save even more money by skipping the frosting and just sprinkle with powdered sugar. That's how our grandmothers ate it. Still so good.
12. VANILLA CAKE - As easy as our chocolate cake, yummy with easy homemade icing.
13. CARROT CAKE - This one is a huge hit on Pinterest. No need to wait for Easter, whip up this basic carrot cake with rave reviews! Easy cream cheese icing, too, even dairy-free if need be.
14. BROWNIES - These do call for chocolate chips, but it's my son's favorite dessert.
15. APPLE PIE - There's nothing better than fresh apple pie from scratch. Just brush the top with melted better or dairy-free butter instead of egg. And sprinkle with crunch raw sugar, so good!
16. CHERRY PIE - Similar to our apple pie, using the same basic crust. We love it made with tart frozen cherries made anytime of the year.
17. MEATBALLS - Since these usually call for egg, I thought I'd throw them into our list. They are amazing without egg and get rave reviews.
RECIPES THAT USE APPLESAUCE FOR EGG
Grab a large jar of unsweetened applesauce to keep in your refrigerator for these recipes:
18. BANANA BREAD - This is one of our top recipes since 2008 and can be made into muffins in half the time.
19. PUMPKIN BREAD - Another frugal recipe with basic pantry ingredients. Canned pumpkin is at least cheap right now.
20. APPPLE BREAD - Great use for apple on their last leg, but I buy them fresh just to make this simple quick bread, too. Perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack.
21. ZUCCHINI BREAD - If you need to sneak some veggies to the kids or have a bumper crop from the garden, this super simple quick bread won't disappoint!.
22. DROP SUGAR COOKIES - Basic pantry ingredients. Frosting is optional.
23. BLUEBERRY MUFFINS - Using frozen berries from Aldi or Sam's makes these really inexpensive.
24. APPLE CIDER DONUTS - Another top recipe here with rave reviews. Basic ingredients but they taste just like (or better) than what you get at the apple orchard or pumpkin patch.
RECIPES THAT USE GROUND FLAXSEED EGG
Flax eggs can be made in minutes with just ground flax and water.
They are best used in recipes that call for just one to two eggs.
Store a bag of ground flax in your freezer for making these eggless recipes whenever you want.
Here's how to make a flax egg.
Here are our favorite recipes using flaxseed egg:
25. CINNAMON ROLLS - These will raise beautifully, you won't even miss the egg!
26. CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE PIE - We make this for guests on the regular. Nobody knows it's egg free.
27. SNICKERDOODLE COOKIES - Well loved by our readers for over a decade. Simple and tasty.
28. BROWN SUGAR COOKIES - Like molasses cookies, but with basic pantry ingredients. Super frugal.
29. PEANUT BUTTER BLOSSOM COOKIES - This is the first cookie my kids want at Christmas. But they can be made all year long! Ours are soft and chewy.
30. FRENCH TOAST - We were one of the first to create flax French toast in 2006. You'll love the subtle nutty taste!
