@HorsleyScott Friendly note that there are many good subs for eggs in baking! Depending on the role of the eggs (binding, leavening, structure) there are great replacements including mashed banana, applesauce, commercial egg replacer, and flax “egg”. Vegan recipes to the rescue!

[Dr. Kristen C. Howard @krchoward]

Hey @HorsleyScott - there are actually a lot of replacements for eggs in baking! Mashed banana, applesauce, commercial egg replacer (usually potato based), silken tofu, and many vegans’ fave: flax “egg”. Friendly reminder considering the high cost of eggs this holiday season.

[scott horsley @HorsleyScott]

Egg prices jumped more than 8% in November and are up more than 37% in the last year. Bird flu has reduced the supply of eggs at a time of peak holiday demand. https://t.co/Uzc1UqgWkm

Looking forward to this tomorrow!

@huwaliyasuntob I’d be happy to chat about how a similar activity could be structured with the books we have on campus - new purchases (McLennan main), recently borrowed (McLennan 3rd), rotating book display (Redpath main), and of course the other branches (music, law, etc) & services on offer!
