What can be used if you don't have an egg?

Answer

Any one of these substitutions will work instead of an egg:

2 tbsp corn starch
2 tbsp arrowroot flour
2 tbsp potato starch
1 heaping tbsp soy powder and 2 tbsp water
1 tbsp soy milk powder and 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp water
1 banana for cakes

Milk for an egg-glaze on pastries.

Or, depending on the dish, mayo or salad dressing (Miracle Whip). Either of these two makes pancakes very fluffy.
