            A picture of Egg free vegan challah at YM&YWHA

            Egg-Free (Vegan) Challah

              INGREDIENTS

              • 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
              • 1 cup warm water
              • 4 – 4 1/4 cups flour (approximately)
              • 1/3 cup sugar
              • 1 teaspoon salt
              • 2 tablespoons oil

              Egg replacement:

              • 3 tablespoons oil
              • 3 tablespoons warm water
              • 2 teaspoons baking powder.
              1

              The egg replacement works as a binding agent. The “fizzing” that occurs when whisked together provides the “lift” to the finished product. Make sure you add this right before the flour.
