Frequently asked questions
What are some great cookie recipes that are eggless?
You don’t need eggs to make a delicious cookie, in fact, some of the easiest ones are considered “no-bake” cookies. Lots of recipes require an apple sauce and mashed banana substitute or a similar texture to bind the ingredients together. Aside from these coconut Samoas, we love these, peanut butter cookies, oatmeal chocolate chip, and these eggless snickerdoodles.
