I eat eggs for breakfast every single day, so I get a little hesitant when I need to use them in my recipes. Although they are a magical ingredient, binding batters and doughs to transform their texture, there are plenty of recipes you can make without them! With egg prices continuing to increase, I compiled a list of my favorite eggless sourdough recipes that show you can make delicious, breads, cakes and cookies without them.

With simple swaps like yogurt, even mashed fruit or veggies you can still achieve soft, fluffy bread, tender cakes, and chewy cookies—no eggs required!
