Best Egg Substitute for Cookies? I Tested Popular Options Side-by-Side!

Wondering what to use when you're out of eggs — or just want an egg-free sugar cookie? In this video, I tested eight popular egg substitutes in my go-to sugar cookie recipe so you don’t have to! From Greek yogurt and banana to aquafaba and commercial egg replacers, I baked and compared each one to see how they affected texture, spread, taste, and ease of use. Whether you're dealing with allergies, dietary preferences, or just an empty egg carton, this experiment will help you find the best swap for your cookies. 🧪 This is part of my “The Bake Lab” series, where I run small kitchen experiments to help bakers make more informed choices. No fluff, just real results. Standard recipe used for all batches (linked below!) Results may vary slightly based on brand and preparation.
