Ingredients

1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds,* also known as flaxseed meal
3 tablespoons water

Instructions

Combine the ground flax and water in a small bowl (if your recipe calls for multiple eggs, multiply the ingredients as necessary and mix in the same bowl). Stir with a fork until combined.
Let the mixture rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes, until the consistency is somewhat gloppy or congealed. Use in place of the eggs in your baking project.
