Egg substitute I found was still eggs...egg whites. So that is what I used. These are quite good, although mine weren't really vegan.

These didn't come out like the texture of macaroons, they were more like little coconut cakes, and they tasted reeeeally good! I shall make them again and drizzle some chocolate on them :) mmmmmmmmm

These are tasty little guys. I subbed a real egg for the egg substitute, and used Sucanat rather than sugar and whole wheat pastry flour. I have a real problem with the last ingredient- dashes of baking powder?! Baking powder is an active ingredient, not just something to add to taste. I added 1/4 tsp (for half the recipe) which worked okay. These are actually a little cakey for my tastes despite the fact that the batter was quite thin. All in all, these are pretty good.
