{{Substitution|to=Ground flaxseed|conv=1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water per egg|confidence=medium|effect=Per egg: 1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water, rested 5 minutes. Binds well; slightly denser, faintly nutty.|warning=Binds but does not leaven. Reliable up to two eggs; beyond that the bake goes heavy.}}<br />

{{Substitution|to=Applesauce|role=creaming|confidence=low|effect=Cookies go cakey and pale.}}<br />
