Egg Sizes, Weights & Substitutes

US sizes are defined by minimum weight per dozen. UK/EU “large” is 63–73 g in shell — larger than US large. If a recipe calls for “3 large eggs”, use about 150 g of beaten egg.

Substitutes per egg

• 1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water (rest 5 min)
• ¼ cup (60 g) unsweetened applesauce
• ¼ cup mashed banana
• 3 tbsp aquafaba (for whites)
