Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Egg

There are many egg substitutes for cookies available on the internet. But making the cookies which are free from the regular refined flour and refined sugar, is a trial and error in itself.

While I’ve tried some substitutes and failed, but this one made with Flaxseed powder wins hands down. If you are looking for an eggless Atta Jaggery version of the cookies, this is definitely the one!

Health Benefits of Flaxseed

Since we are replacing the egg used in our regular wheat jaggery chocolate chip cookies with Flaxseed Gel, it is worth noting the many benefits of Flax. Flaxseed is a very nutritious element, which can be very easily used in a powdered form by adding it to our day to day recipes. Here are some of the many health benefits of using Flaxseed in our diet!

  • Rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids (which is important for heart health)
  • Good source of protein, thiamine and copper
  • Good source of fiber, which can lower cholesterol levels
  • Keeps you full for longer, which supports weight management

Substitute for eggs in chocolate chip cookies

I am using Flaxseed Gel as egg substitute here for the whole wheat jaggery chocolate chip cookies. I have tried other egg substitutes as well, like chia seed gel, milk, cream cheese etc, but I have found Flaxseed Gel as the best egg replacer in cookies.
