HI Joanne,

So sorry for late response! Just finally coming up for air from being gone so long and getting to my emails. I don’t see why you couldn’t mix this by hand, though it is a thick batter.

My heart always sinks when I see a good sounding recipe but I haven’t got the equipment.

Hi Ariadne,

Yes! Use chia or flax eggs to substitute for the eggs. Simply ue 1 TB of either flax or chia and 2 1/2 TB of water to substitute for each egg.

Enjoy

Hi Cat,

So…how was the aquafaba substitution? I’d love your input as I know that others have the same challnge.

Then I saw it requires 3 eggs… I’m allergic to egg whites, so have had to try substitutions. And, after sending you my note about bean soups, I had to LOL! I’ve recently – and successfully – been using aquafava (bean juice from canned beans) to substitute for eggs in recipes. Everything except scrambled eggs, of course. 🙂 Notes I’ve seen for substituting aquafava say to limit replacing no more than 3 eggs in a recipe with it. Whew! So, I’m going to try this recipe today, having just run out of crackers today with company coming for the weekend. What a splurge, right?! (Wonder if it goes with candied jalapenos… LOL!)

Hi Jeanie,

Absolutely! Any dried fig will work. Use what you have.

Wishing for a speedy recovery for you so you can get back to the good things!

Hugs, Lynn

Recovering from hip replacement surgery and soooo impatient to get back to baking (and everything else)
Thank you!!

Hi Susan, I would think so! When you try it, pop back in and let me know.

I’m experimenting with gluten free baking and it can be a challenge. I also try to be plant based so I’m wondering if this recipe could possibly be made with flax eggs. Otherwise it looks perfect!

Thank you, Lynn
