If a muffin recipe calls for 2 eggs, and I only have 1, will it be okay?

I want to make muffins, but it says I need 2 eggs, and I only have 1 :( I refuse to go to the store. Can I still make them?


What exactly are the eggs for anyway?If a muffin recipe calls for 2 eggs, and I only have 1, will it be okay?
why dont you just make half the recipe, since you only have half the eggs?If a muffin recipe calls for 2 eggs, and I only have 1, will it be okay?
It will be fine.
No it will not work and the taste will be less than perfect..go to your neighbor and borrow one and return the favor with a muffin..I love doing this with my neighbors..if you have no neighbors cut the recipe in half..
It won't work if you only have 1 egg. The egg is for binding the the ingredients together and it's also a leavening agent, that means it helps the muffins rise. You can use a tablespoon of applesauce as a substitute to the missing egg, that will work just as good, and it's not big in flavor so it won't overpower your other ingredients. Hope everything works out for the best. ;]
Add a few tablespoons of applesauce or water to make up the difference in liquid.
Eggs can bind ingredients as in meatloaves or croquettes. They can also leaven such baked high rises as souffles and sponge cakes.





If the recipe has another leavening agent like baking powder or self-rising flour used in it then just use a tablespoon of applesauce in place of the other egg.
yeah i do that all the time. hope i helped
