| Has anyone had luck with using Bisquick mix for an egg allergic child? What do you recommend in the recipe instead of the 2 eggs it calls for? |

Pancakes are pretty easy to replace egg. Applesauce, banana, or flax egg. In all these, the pancakes will be a little denser but still yummy.m
commercial egg replacer is great too. I always have some on hand. |
| You can buy egg replacer at the grocery store or natural food store. That's what you use for baking instead of eggs. |
| quick question, are you sure your kid will react to the egg in pancakes? mine doesn't. |
| I use the Arrowhead Mills Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix - it is naturally egg free. |
| Maybe egg yolks only instead of whites? Mine is allergic only to the whites. |
| Cherrybrook farms. |
Does it some white only stick to the yolk? |
Sorry, that should have been "doesn't some white always stick to the yolk? |
| Yes, of course. But it's the best I can do. |

Owner of an egg-allergic kid here. We do Bisquick with one or two flaxseed "eggs" (one T of ground flaxseed to 3 T of water or other liquid).
PSA: Separating the whites from the yolks works for recipes that only call for one part, but is not a safe option when preparing food for someone who is actually allergic to all or part of the egg. |
| There are varying degrees of allergies. My kid is allergic to egg whites, but if I separate eggs and use them in pancakes or baking, he does fine. If I just scramble or fry, he will have a reaction. So it depends. |
| We use "the food allergy mama" recipe (her two cookbooks are must haves) and Cherrybrook Kitchen mix is delicious. |
| If dairy is ok, you can replace the egg with ricotta. Yum. |
+1 - I was allergic to egg whites as a child, but could still eat the yolks without a reaction. |
