Egg Substitutes
It's a nuisance to be in the mood for baking only to find you have no eggs. You can buy an egg replacement (health food aisle of your supermarket) which is great for anyone with an egg allergy or intolerance or you can make an egg substitute to use in baking from common pantry ingredients, with no discernible change in the finished cake or biscuits.
Egg Substitutes:
Orgran No Egg - follow directions on box. Equivalent to 66 eggs and costs around $4.50 - very economical to use and easy to store
2 tbsp cornflour = 1 egg
2 tbsp arrowroot flour = 1 egg
1 heaped tbsp soy powder + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg
1 tbsp soy milk powder + 1 tbsp cornflour + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg.
1 banana = 1 egg in cakes
You can also reduce the number of eggs you use in cake recipes. One egg and 1 tablespoon white vinegar is the equivalent of two eggs. When substituting like this, use one teaspoon of cornflour with the vinegar for each egg over three.

Ginger Muffins
Ingredients:
1 cup boiling water
2 tsp bicarb soda
1 1/4 cup wholemeal flour
1 1/4 cup plain flour
2 tsp ginger
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 canola oil
1/4 cup cream cheese
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup molasses
Icing sugar
Method:
Place the bicarb soda in a bowl and add the boiling water and stir until the bicarb soda is just dissolved. Sift together the flours, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, salt and baking powder in a large bowl. In a separate bowl place the canola oil, cream cheese and brown sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Place the mixer speed on low and slowly add the molasses while beating. Add the bicarb soda paste and the flour mixture. Beat on low until just combined. Add the egg substitute and beat just until all the ingredients are moistened through. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Prepare a muffin tin by spraying lightly with a non stick cooking spray. Fill the muffin cups 2/3 full of the batter. Bake 20 minutes or until the top of the muffins spring back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the tops of the hot muffins with icing sugar.
Note: You can buy egg substitute in the health food aisle of your supermarket. It actually works out cheaper for baking than using fresh eggs and there is no noticeable difference in taste or texture in the finished baked goods. Cath

Lactose-Free Ice-Cream
Ingredients:
3 cups coconut cream (two 13.5oz cans works fine)
1 scant cup sugar
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped OR 2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp liqueur or rum (your favourite variety)
Method:
One day ahead of time, put the bowl of your ice cream maker into the freezer to chill.
Combine all ingredients except the liqueur in a large saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir occasionally and watch carefully to make sure the mixture does not boil over. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Remove the hull of the vanilla bean, pour mixture into lidded container and cool to room temperature. Reserve the vanilla bean for another use. Refrigerate mixture overnight to mellow flavours and texture. Freeze mixture in ice cream freezer according to unit's instructions. The mixture will not freeze hard in the machine. Once the volume has increased by 1/2 to 3/4 times and reached a soft serve consistency (about 25 minutes), spoon the mixture back into an airtight container.
Gently stir the liqueur into the semi-frozen ice cream. Freeze at least 1 hour before serving.
Variations:
For chocolate ice cream, add 1/3 cup high-quality cocoa powder (I prefer Valrhona) to the base and stir in while the mixture is being heated
For chocolate-banana swirl ice cream, add two mashed ripe bananas and 1/4 cup melted chocolate (cooled to room temperature) just before the ice cream is done churning.
If you don't have an ice cream maker just pour the mixture into a bowl and place in the freezer for a few hours until semi frozen, take out and beat with electric beaters and return to the freezer, this helps the ice cream to stay creamy, if you have time you can beat it again after a few hours then let if stay in freezer covered till ready to use.

Mock Mud Cake
Ingredients:
1-1/2cups flour
3 tbsp cocoa
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp white vinegar
6 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp bicarbonate soda
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a 20cm round tin and line the bottom with baking paper. Dust inside the tin with a little cocoa and tap out excess (use cocoa and it won't show up on the crust of the cake). Put the flour, sugar, cocoa and water in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add vanilla, vinegar, oil and bicarbonate soda. Mix until smooth. This is a very thin cake batter. Pour into the prepared cake tin. Bake 35 to 40 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes then turn out of tin.
