Before starting recipe for cookies, cake etc.... Combine 1 tsp unflavored gelatin with 3 Tbsp cold water and 2 Tbsp plus 1 tsp boiling water. This mixture will substitute for 1 egg in a recipe.

Just found the mayo equivalent.

In cake batter, 2 tablespoons mayo = 1 large egg

 

Also, if using soy flour, it may brown more quickly. Try reducing baking time or lower oven temp. slightly.

 

To enchance nutty flavor of soy flour, lightly toast it before using in a recipe. Briefly cook soy flour in a dry skillet over moderate heat, stirring occassionally.
