Bette Hagman uses it in addition to eggs - to help with the texture/rising. If you can't find it, try mixing 1 tsp. baking soda and 2 tsp. baking powder (or any amount in the same ratio) and measuring the amount you need. It's not exactly what the egg replacer is, but it should work in a recipe that also calls for eggs. In a recipe that doesn't use real eggs, you can substitute one egg for every 1-1/2 tsp egg replacer and reduce liquid by 3 Tbs.

here is also something I found somewhere else...I haven't tried all these before

Egg replacers

2 eggs - Use 1/2 cup soft silken tofu.

Ener-G Egg Replacer - follow directions on box.

2 Tbsp corn starch = 1 egg

2 Tbsp arrowroot flour = 1 egg

2 Tbsp potato starch = 1 egg

1 heaping Tbsp soy powder + 2 Tbsp water = 1 egg

1 Tbsp soy milk powder + 1 Tbsp cornstarch + 2 Tbsps water = 1 egg.

1 Tbsp flax seeds + 1 cup water = 1 egg. Blend seeds and water for 1 to 2 minutes

until desired consistency.

1 banana = 1 egg in cakes.

I have used banana to repalce oil before so their is less fat... but I usually use the ener-g if the recipe calls for 4 eggs I use 2 eggs and ener-g for the other two...but I use egg replacer in almost all my recipes it seems to help make things taste more like wheat products. good luck

My favorite egg replacer is 1 1/2T water, 1 1/2T canola oil, 1 tsp baking powder mixed together = 1 egg

It works for up to 2 eggs

I use 1 tbsp ground flax mixed with 3 tbsp hot water for each egg. When I need fluffiness, I also double baking soda and baking powder.

      It has been the most terrible illness ever! Going on 3 weeks now… I had chicken pox as a kid… crazy how much havoc this dormant virus has caused after being reactivated! No idea what even caused it to fire back up. I’m scared this pain and sensitivity is just never going to improve or go away

      OKJmartes. Skin and eyes. Also anxiety and frustration. I have read that Celiacs have more skin problems than people who do not have Celiacs. I take increased levels of Vit. D3, very high levels of B12 and an eating part of an avocado every day. KnittyKitty and others here can add what they take for skin health. A Dermatologist might identify the type of skin condition. By eyes you may mean eyesight problems not just irritated, red eyes. It is not very difficult to get a diagnosis of which eye condition is affecting your vision but much more difficult to find an effective remedy. The ophthalmologists I have seen have been only a little helpful. There seems to have been some advances in eye treatments that most of them are completely ignorant of or just won't add to their treatment plans.  Forcertain you may as well buy some remedy from a facebook ad but that is obviously risky and may actually damafe your eyes. However it is known that certain supplements , taken at the effectivelevels do help with eyesight. Two of them are Luten and zanthamin (spelling?)and certain anti-oxidants such as bilberry..    Hope this helps.

      I refused to do the gluten challenge for a long time because I knew how sick I would be: I have always had and still have positive antibodies and have so many symptoms my  GI was 💯 sure I would have a positive biopsy. I didn’t want to make myself sick to get a negative biopsy and be more confused by all this.  He couldn’t guarantee me a negative biopsy meant no celiac bc there may not be damage yet or it’s possible to miss biopsies where there’s damage but he was so sure and convinced me I needed that biopsy I went back on gluten. It was a terrible experience! I took pictures of the bloating and swelling and weight gain during the challenge. I gained 9 pounds, looked pregnant, was in pain , couldn’t work or function without long naps and the brain fog was debilitating. And in the end he didn’t get a positive biopsy… so I wish I had never wasted my time or health going through it. I haven’t been truly straightened  out since and I am currently battling a shingles infection at 43 and I can’t help but wonder if the stress I put my body under to try and get an official diagnosis has caused all this. Best of luck to you - whatever you decide. It’s not a fun thing to go through and I still don’t have the answers I was looking for

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.

      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.
