Egg substitute calculator for vegan baking
Updated November 2, 2026
Eggs do different jobs in baking: they bind, leaven or add moisture. Pick the job and the number of eggs and this converter gives measured amounts for common plant-based swaps.
Which swap to choose
Flax and chia "eggs" bind well and add fiber. Aquafaba, the liquid from a can of chickpeas, whips like egg whites and gives lift. Fruit purees and silken tofu add moisture but little lift. A large egg is roughly 50 grams, or about 3 to 4 tablespoons, which is why most swaps land near a quarter cup. See our full egg substitute guide.
