Flaxseed Substitutions

• 3 tbsp water
• 1 tbsp ground flax meal
• 1 Per Egg 1:3 ratio. Allow to sit for 3-5 minutes to achieve egg-like texture.
• 1 A general rule of subsitition for flour is to reduce the flour by 1/2 to 3/4 cup and add the equivalent in flax flour. The fiber content of flaxseed flour will require some additional liquid when converting traditional recipes, as baked goods will brown m
• 3 tbsp Ground Flax = 1 Tablespoon Margarine, butter or cooking oil.
• 1 Substitute for all or some of the fat depending on the recipe.To substitute for all of the fat with flax seed, increase liquid by 75% as ground flax seed absorbs liquid. Baked goods brown more quickly.

1. No egg substitute will work successfully in dishes that are egg-dependent, such as quiche or meringue.
2. If you use too much flax seed meal/water mixture (or if you use any flax seed meal/water mixture in pancakes), the risk is that what is baking will remain gummy inside.
