Ingredients

1 tablespoon chia seeds
3 tablespoons water

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine the chia seeds and water.
Stir well to prevent clumps.
Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.
Use immediately in your recipe as a replacement for one egg.

Tips

For best results, use white or black chia seeds; both work equally well.
Store unused chia egg in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, but stir before using.
To make a larger batch, scale the ratio: 1 tablespoon chia seeds to 3 tablespoons water per egg.
