Thanks for this recipe, Heidi. These are great! I made mini ones that cooked for 20 minutes and regular size that cooked for 25 minutes. They are really moist and tasty!
Sorry Patti- Listed it wrong: Here are some ideas for replacing eggs-
Replace 1 large egg with one of the following:
3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce (or other fruit puree) + 1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon flax meal or salba seed + 3 tablespoons hot water. (Let stand, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes or until thick. Use without straining.
Egg Replacer, according to package directions
4 tablespoons pureed silken tofu + 1 teaspoon baking powder
Replacing more than two eggs will change the integrity of a recipe. For recipes that call for a lot of eggs, like a quiche, use pureed silken tofu. Because egg substitutions add moisture, you may have to increase baking times slightly.
Shannon- Just a guess, but I bet Coconut flour would work well here. It doesn't tasted coco-nutty, but has a nice texture and would even keep the recipe grain-free as well as gluten free.
How is this vegan with the eggs? How to make egg free?
What can I use to replace the almond flour as I am allergic to almonds?
