Every Christmas we have home made sweet rolls. The recipe calls for 1 egg. Is there anything I could use to replace the egg so the new vegan people in the family can still eat the rolls? Or can I just leave the egg out?

Best Answer
You can use either chia seeds or ground linseed. Mix a tablespoon of chia/linseed with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit on the counter for about twenty minutes.
That mixture will replace the egg in almost any recipe for bread/mixed cake.
The rest period is important, as it allows the water to soak up the sticky proteins from the linseed/chia.
