If you experiment with recipes

How do you organize your notes/changes to the recipe?

I am an experienced baker, so I used to just write small tweaks to recipes in the margins and that was enough. However, I have a child with an egg allergy, and my go-to recipes need multiple changes as I “redo” them in egg-free form. Do I just need to re-write the recipe in a journal and then make notes over time? For example, I’m on my 4th iteration for vanilla cupcakes, and I think I’m getting close to being “done”, and I just re-wrote the whole thing again because it was messy. The problem is that I have about 8 recipes I’m working on, so even my journal is getting messy.

TIA.
