Hi Gretchen! Have been a huge fan of yours for years and love the way you have adapted your recipes to vegan! Just wanted to ask if you can replace the Plant Based Egg in this chocolate chip cookie recipe for Flaxseed? Thank You Again for your amazing recipes!
Hi Thanks! I found the best results with the PBE for this particular recipe, you can try it with flax and see how it goes!
I have another recipe here with flax CLICK HERE
hey there gretchen, I’ve been a HUGE fan and have followed and used your recipes for a few yrs now. I’m not vegan but was wondering can u give me the original recipe for the chocolate chip cookies like u had originally? They are soooo bomb!!
Hey…Gretchen. ur recipes are just incredible… it just comes out the way u have mentioned it… do keep posting more and we keep learning??
YAY! thank you!!
Hi,
I would love to test ur cookies, but here in Luxemburg u can‘t find nor order this egg replacer :/
4 teaspoons is this equivalent to 2 tablespoons of soy flour? Thanks in advance 🙂
Hi, well no it’s not THAT easy, however I did not try soy flour as an egg replacer, it’s worth a try, but I would recommend another Proprietary blend egg replacer instead. Not sure where you live or what you have to choose from though. I have been told Orgran is a common powder egg replacer
Hi Gretchen, how long can I keep the cookies for in an airtight container?
Until they are gone!! LOL
Haha seriously though they will go stale before they go “bad” so honestly weeks! (or freeze for longer!)
Hi, I’m very new to vegan baking, but your site has really tempted me to give it a shot. I am planning to use Bob’s Red Mill egg replacer, and the directions say to mix it with liquid first. Would you recommend using some of the liquid to do that, or just sitting it into the flour as specified in the recipe? Thank you, Gretchen!
Hi Great! Welcome! I always add the egg replacer to the dry ingredients!
