  • 12 large eggs

Instructions
 

Freezing in Mason Jars

  • An 8 ounce mason jar will hold about 4 large eggs. For one dozen eggs you'll need 3-4 jars.
  • Wash and dry mason jars and lids.
  • Crack 4 eggs into each mason jar making sure to not fill above the lower raised ring of the jar. Place on a lid and ring to seal tightly and shake shake shake!
  • If you're not able to use enough force to thoroughly shake the eggs then you can easily whisk all the eggs in a large bowl, then pour eggs into each mason jar, making sure to not overfill.
  • Freeze the blended eggs until ready to use.
  • When ready to use, use 3 tablespoons blended egg liquid to replace 1 large egg.

Freezing in Ziploc Bags

  • Whisk up your eggs in a bowl, then pour them into a Ziploc bag. Lay the bag flat to freeze.
  • When you're ready to use the eggs, defrost in the fridge.
    You can poor the eggs directly from the bag if you're not needing to measuring them out.
    If you're going to use the eggs in baking then it would be easiest to thaw the eggs, then transfer them to a bowl or jar to measure out small portions at a time!
