I do it all the time in baking. Like a tablespoon per egg. I also use fewer eggs in my challah than most people to start with, so my expectations are probably different.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Push the buttons, make the blades spin. When done push the button to make the blades stop spinning.
It's one of these things, and it won't assemble properly. The blade part won't fit into the mechanism! Also there are no buttons.

Oh, hey, I have an actual recipe that calls for 3T flaxseed and 3/4 C water as the egg sub for 2 loaves. That sounds pretty tasty. Also 1/2 t of turmeric. I think my mom has made that one and been happy with it, but she doesn't like eggs to start with.

I've seen that recipe. I tend to like challah on the sweet side, so flaxseed seemed wrong to me. I'm not sure it really needs anything to sub for the egg -- I've seen one recipe that just skipped the egg -- but this one with banana got a ton of great reviews on the site where I found it, so I figured I'd give it a shot.
I'm trying to get a good recipe by Rosh Hashanah, so that when I go to my parents' for the holiday, I can just bring a few challah rolls with me.

Beth, I was looking at smoothieweb.com! He will LOVE the one you linked, because he was asking me if they could be "modified" with sherbet.
He told me that if I print out some smoothie recipes for him, he'll give me the chocolate he brought back for us from Vermont. Since it's from Lake Champlain Chocolates, which is SOFUCKINGGOOD, I'm willing to find him recipes, despite how silly I think the need for smoothie recipes is.

Heh. I'm all about the sourdough challah, so we are probably not looking for the same taste at all.

This was the recipe I was using: [link] I think that next time, I'll cut down a little bit on the sugar -- it's a bit too sweet.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
If there are any decent vegan mayonaises, perhaps that could be used as an egg substitute? My mom taught me that in a pinch, an egg-sized lump of mayo works pretty well in most recipes.

There is a pretty good vegan mayo (Veganaise), and I never would have thought of that. I'd think it would taste weird in challah, though. I can see it working in something that's supposed to be a little tangy.

That's an interesting idea. I'll try to remember it next time I'm having my parents over. I'm pretty sure I've had cakes made with mayo that tasted fine.
I bet that banana one would make kick-ass french toast.
