I only used 3 T water instead of 5 and did not boil it first - just added it to the yeast bread dough and went on. Turned out great. I would not skip the boiling if you arent making a yeast bread.

This was a recipe-saver, as I was short one egg, and it worked beautifully! This will be my go-to egg replacer! Thanks, pollen!

I have used this in chocolate cake and it works well, though I only used 3 tbsps. of water instead of the 5. Thanks for posting, it beats using eggs all the time.

I had 3 xtra kids over (PICKY ones) and went to make pancakes for breakfast - AHH NO eggs in the house!- with ice outside I went to Zaar for help. I found this recipe and it works PERFECTLY! I have only used flaxseed in a granola recipe that I made months ago, so I was thrilled to find this and have it work. I used milled flaxseed and heated it until bubbley, let it cool and added it to the pancake mix. All of the kids devoured it and gave it a 5 star rating which is a miracle. THANK YOU for an easy fix, and to anyone who is afraid to try this please don't be, as I am a NOVICE cook! :)
