egg replacer
Eggless baking powder
Egg replacer is a product used in cooking and baking as a substitute for eggs, typically by vegans, people with egg allergies, or those who've simply run out of eggs.
Commercial egg replacers are usually powder-based mixtures of starches and leavening agents that mimic eggs' binding and rising properties when mixed with water.
Common DIY egg replacers include mashed banana, applesauce, flaxseed mixed with water, and aquafaba (the liquid from canned chickpeas).
