baking powder
Baking powder is a reliable, double-acting leavening agent (combination of baking soda, acid and cornstarch) that helps vegan baked goods rise light and fluffy, perfect for muffins, cakes, pancakes, biscuits, and quick breads without eggs or dairy. Baking powder is activated with moisture and heat.
Tip: Baking powder can be used as an egg replacer. Simply whisk together 2 tablespoons of water, 1 teaspoon of oil (such as light-flavored olive oil), and 2 teaspoons of baking powder. One serving of this mixture is equivalent to 1 missing egg.
