Eggless Chocolate-Chip Cookies

After a few trials, I finally got my hands on these eggless chocolate chip cookies. They were baked to perfection, crisp from outside and chewy from inside. Seasoned with lots of love and chocolate chips.

I replaced eggs with flax eggs, grind flax seeds and soak them in water, it acts as a great substitute for egg. Also flax seeds add to the texture of the cookies. This eggless version of cookies is very easy to make that even beginners can also make this very successfully.

Happy Baking!!

Notes

What’s a Flax Egg?

A flax egg is a vegan egg substitute, that is made up of ground flax seeds and water. It’s 100% natural, vegan, gluten free, it falls perfectly into any category of food that you’re eating.

Interestingly, flax seed egg re-placer can even do more harm than good in cakes due to its tendency to hold onto excess moisture. It also is not a structure builder in that it won’t form protein networks that reinforce dough’s like an egg will. It will work to stick things together instead. But it acts as a great substitute of egg in cookies.  Flax egg makes the cookies perfectly crunchy from outside and soft from inside.
