I’m not very sure oil can replace eggs. Blood can though 🙂

Eggs…did you mean butter?

Umm as somebody who had a vegan phase , the best egg replacer was apple sauce and chia seeds

what I’m gonna say is gonna sound super fucking gross but it’s a real thing: you can use mayo and drop the salt from the recipe

Looks like you could find some well-preserved mammoth remains in there. Maybe some smilodon too

You can technically replace anything in a recipe with something else if you don’t care how it turns out.

I heard that food enemas provide poor nutrient absorption in exchange for the mess.

How could you possibly? Eggs are proteins and fats, oil is twice the same fat… how would they be the same in an oven?

In my family, there is a 30-year running joke with one of my cousins because she did exactly that replaced eggs with oil and got exactly what you did a deep-fried charcoal “brownie” brick. Thanks for the funny memory and sorry about your brownies.

I use yogurt or sour cream to replace eggs in my baking.

You can replace the oil with banana

As a baker I am absolutely appalled and mortified

You can replace butter with oil, I don’t think you’re supposed to replace the eggs lol. I don’t mean this in a condescending way, but just use common sense. An egg consists of 74% water, 12% protein, 10% fat and 0.5% carbs. If you actually need to replace the eggs because you have none, you could replace them with water, fat and some sort of protein if possible.
Example: If you need 4 eggs (each egg ~50 grams = 200 grams in total) you could replace them with 140g water, 20 g oil, vegetable shortening or butter, 20 protein powder and 1 gram of soy lecithin

It’s applesauce you can use as a substitute for eggs. 🙂

eggs/oil are not interchangeable, eggs are for consistency and oil is for moisture

Vegans use apple sauce to substitute eggs. Try that next time.
pauldrano
why did you bake them in cardboard?

I cant stop drinking crude oil

Jesus lmao no. Eggs are used as a binding ingredient. Kind of the opposite effect of oil.
This is why education and basic science are important, folks.

So you just heard this random tidbit and said, “Fuck it, why not?”. Didn’t check any recipes, hit up Google, ask a friend or your mom? Just fucking skipped the eggs and put a random amount of oil in the batter instead?

Gotta respect your confidence, I guess.
