If the recipe uses more than 2 eggs, then I use applesauce to replace 2 of the eggs and Ener-G egg replacer powder for the remaining eggs.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12789942783460243030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313143544219095171.post-71766797809525953342010-07-12T12:18:36.129-05:002010-07-12T12:18:36.129-05:00I love applesauce!
