Aquafaba

1 rating
Aquafaba is the new trend in vegan baking and egg-free baking. It’s easy, healthy, and versatile! You can whip it up to use in place of egg whites, or just use the juice (chickpea brine) for whole egg baking.

Author's Notes

You can use a hand mixer as well. Takes around 10-15 minutes at medium-high speed. Keep holding it and moving it around.

You can store it just like egg white in the fridge or freezer. Store in the freezer in ice cube trays to last longer.

It’s recommended you add 1/4 cream of tartar if you are adding to oil/fats.

Add powdered sugar if you want it sweetened and use a “whipped cream” replacement or froth.

Use it in place of egg whites in baking. Or use the liquid reduced in place of whole eggs.
