Silken Tofu as Egg Replacement

Silken Tofu is a popular egg substitute. The usual ratio is to substitute ¼ cup silken tofu or soft tofu for each egg, just like yogurt. Here in this recipe, I have used ½ cup silken tofu, as a replacement for 2 eggs .

I measured the tofu first, weighed it and blended it with milk. The resultant liquid is so rich and luscious, you can feel the final product is going to rich and soft.
When using this replacement, baked goods won’t brown as deeply. Since the silken tofu, doesn't have leavening properties, in most cases, you need to add about ¼ th teaspoon baking soda/egg.

If you love this soft and fluffy blueberry muffins, check this luscious chocolate cake and these fluffy banana muffins, both made with silken tofu. With fresh blueberries in the market that too in affordable prices, I have another stash in the fridge, planning to make this blueberry banana bread for the weekend. With kids at home, no amount of snack is enough, don't you agree!!!

After adding the final flour mix, use a spatula and mix the batter to get a smooth batter. To this now add flour tossed blueberries and mix it with the spatula gently.
Now divide the batter into the muffin pan. I have made 12 huge muffins, you can make 18 medium sized muffins too.
Bake the muffin in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Mine were done by 26 minutes.
Oven temperature and timings differ from oven to oven, so keep an eye on them after 25 minutes.
Take the muffins out of the oven. Let it sit in the muffin pan for a minute. Remove the muffins on to a wire rack and let it cool down completely.
Enjoy the muffins warm. They stay good on the kitchen counter for 1 or 2 days. If storing for more days, i recommend refrigerating in an air-tight container.
If serving cold muffins from the fridge, i recommend reheating each muffin for 20 seconds and serve it warm.
