  1. use milk


  2. Mayonnaise, but take out some of the oil from the recipe, as well.  Eggs and oil are the two primary ingredients in mayo, and I have had good results with this substitution.

  3. Try to use the egg whites instead of the whole egg.

  4. They'll b more like a 1/2 fudge..1/2 brownie consistency.

    Yogurt is a good sub or mayo or

    • 1 egg = 2 Tbsp. potato starch

    • 1 egg = 1/4 cup mashed potatoes

    • 1 egg = 1/4 cup canned pumpkin or squash

    • 1 egg = 1/4 cup puréed prunes

    • 1 egg = 2 Tbsp. water + 1 Tbsp. oil + 2 tsp. baking powder

    • 1 egg = 1 Tbsp. ground flax seed simmered in 3 Tbsp. water

    • 1 egg white = 1 Tbsp. plain agar powder dissolved in 1 Tbsp. water, whipped, chilled, and whipped again

    Eggless brownies#2

    * 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

    * 1 cup water

    * 1/2 cup butter

    * 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

    * 2 cups white sugar

    * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    * 2 cups all-purpose flour

    * 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

    * 1/2 teaspoon salt

    * 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

    DIRECTIONS:

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan. In a heavy saucepan combine the 1/3 cup of flour and water. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until thick. Transfer to a mixing bowl and set aside to cool.

    2. In a small saucepan, melt butter. When butter has melted, add the cocoa and mix until smooth; set aside to cool. Beat the sugar and vanilla into the cooled flour mixture. Stir in the cocoa mixture until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt, stir into the batter until just blended. Fold in walnuts if desired. Spread evenly in the prepared pan.

    3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool before cutting into bars.

  5. The recipe calls for eggs for a reason.

    You cant substitute eggs.

    It makes it the brownies.

    Go to your neighbors and ask for 2 eggs.

  6. This is from the Farmer's Almanac website:

    What is a good substitute for eggs?

    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 tbsp water = 1 egg.

    1 banana = 1 egg in cakes.

    And this is from about.com:

    As a general rule, the fewer eggs a recipe calls for, the easier they will be to substitute. So, if a cookie recipe calls for one egg, using an egg substitute will work much better than in a recipe that requires three or four eggs. Also consider how the substitute will affect the overall taste of the finished dish. Bananas, for example, may add a welcome hint of fruity sweetness to pancakes and cookies, but if you are making a casserole or another savory dish, you will want to use something else.
