Finding The Best Whole Egg Powder

Egg powder is great for a variety of uses—it is an affordable protein that can back up the backbone of an emergency food supply (yes, some brands we reviewed in this article have a 10-year shelf life).

For day to day use, whole egg powder is helpful for baking . . . especially when you run out of eggs during when the kids want to bake cookie.

If you like to camp, hike or backpack, powdered eggs are a great snack or quick meal on the go. 

Smoothies are another great use for powdered eggs—a great way to get protein without worrying about the risks from raw eggs. 

As always, we do blind taste tests when it comes to products like whole egg powder. That way we aren’t influenced by brands or packaging. Before we get to the winners, here is a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies with Whole Egg Powder, using one of the powders we review in this article.

How We Pick Products To Recommend

We often turn to our readers (3 million strong!) to find products to recommend. We ask our parent readers for their favorites and consider their real-world experiences in our recommendations.

When we test a product, we always purchase it with our own monies. We do not take free samples, as we believe that compromises our independence.

We also fact check manufacturer information with our own measurements. If a maker claims a product weighs X pounds, we will weigh it to make sure. If the battery life is supposed to be six hours, we will see how it stands up in the real world.

In some cases, we will do interviews with experts in the field to get additional feedback on products.

To get hands-on time with products, we regularly meet one-on-one with gear companies and even tour manufacturing facilities. (When we do this, we pay our own travel expenses).

Why Trust Us

We’ve been rating and reviewing products for the home and families since 1994. We do extensive research, evaluating products with an eye toward quality, ease of use and affordability.

We make our living from affiliate commissions, but we always recommend what we think are the best bets for our readers (not the ones that are the most expensive). We are always looking for products that offer the best bang for the buck.

Our independence is a key reason why we have been doing this so long. As we mentioned above, when we purchase a product for hands-on testing, we do so with our own money.

Here’s another key point: we don’t take money from the brands we review. No free samples, no sponsors, no “partnerships.” Our work is 100% reader-supported!
