Is there a way to make meatloaf
without any eggs?
Q: Is there a way to make meatloaf without any eggs?
A: Basically, eggs are used in meatloaf as a binder,
but there is no absolute rule that says you have to use them.
In a pinch, you can substitute 1/4 cup mayonnaise for 1 egg (mayo
is an emulsion of egg and oil), as a bonus the extra oil from
the mayonnaise makes a moister meatloaf (okay, and a few more
fat calories).
However, if eggs are being omitted
because of an egg allergy, then other options for binders in
meatloaf are shredded cheese, creamed spinach, a can of undiluted
condensed vegetable soup mashed to a puree (reduce the salt in
your recipe as needed), applesauce or undiluted evaporated milk
just to name a few.
One of my favorite recipes for
meatloaf that does not contain egg is Mustard-Apple
Meatloaf, it's made with ground pork, but any ground meat
could be substituted.
