total time 2 MINUTES

This is a basic egg wash recipe that can be used to brush on scones, pie crusts, breads, and pastries.

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Combine the egg and the water together and whisk vigorously until well combined and very smooth. You can add a bit more water if needed to thin out.
  2. Brush on top of your baked goods before baking.
  3. If you have leftover egg wash, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. I typically just throw any leftover into my scrambled eggs the next day.
