Unfortunately, sometimes the symptoms of chicken protein allergies are very strong. In most cases they disappear at school age.
Dangerous, allergenic allergens are most often found in egg white, much less in yolk. Unfortunately, even after separating the protein from the yolk, the latter may have traces of protein that may be allergic. Therefore, babies and young children allergic to protein should avoid eating yolks.
Symptoms of egg allergy
Allergy to eggs can have different symptoms. The most common problem is:
- vomiting,
- hives,
- recurrent stomach aches.
Chicken egg substitutes - other eggs
Although you can get eggs from birds of other species, e.g. quail eggs, they should be introduced slowly and carefully. There is a high risk that a child will also be allergic to it.

How to replace eggs?
Eggs can be replaced:

| soy yogurt | 1/3 cup | allows to obtain the expected humidity, binds the ingredients |
| Linseed | 1 tablespoon should be mixed with 3 tablespoons of hot water | allows for good humidity, makes the dough more elastic, binds and thickens |

| baking powder + olive oil | 2 teaspoons mixed with 1 tablespoon oil and 2 tablespoons water | binds, moisturizes, gives fluffiness |
| pumpkin | 1/3 cup puree | binds well, gives moisture. However, beware - it gives a specific taste! In addition, it lightly loads the dough, so it's best to additionally give 1/2 teaspoon baking soda or baking soda |
| potato | ||
| sweet potato | ||
| Grated vegetables: carrots, celery, zucchini, beetroot | 1/3 cup | thickens, binds and gives moisture |
