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.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
