Pecan Pie trouble....please help!?
I'm suppose to make a pecan pie for thanksgiving tomorrow. My problem is the recipe I have calls for 3 eggs and I only have one. I can't get to the store right now and I want to make it now. Is there a substitue I can use for the eggs? I don't have egg beaters either. Thanks in advance for your help.
My neighbors are gone for the holidays or else I would ask them. Thank you all for your responses. I guess I'll just have to wait for my husband to come home so I can run to the store.

dont use anything, just make it with one egg, and it will be fine

If you have one of these, you're in business. These substitutes are PER egg.
2 1/2 tablespoons of powdered egg substitute plus 2 1/2 tablespoons water
OR 1/4 cup liquid egg substitute
OR 1/4 cup silken tofu pureed
OR 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
OR half a banana mashed with 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
OR 1 tablespoon powdered flax seed soaked in 3 tablespoons water
Happy Thanksgiving!

If you want that pie to set up and not be runny when you cut into it, you need all 3 eggs. Borrow from a neighbor!

There is actually an "egg-free" pecan pie recipe, if you wanna try that. I don't know how good it is, but hey, it's worth a shot, right?

yup, I agree, run to your neighbors and ask if you could "borrow" a couple of eggs. Then bake them some cookies or something the next day and take it over as a thank you.

Ask your neighbor for 2 eggs. You win!
