Can eggs be at room temperature?

Answered by Egg Farmers of Ontario February 5th, 2020

Answer

Yes, you can use room temperature eggs in recipes. Some recipes work better when you bring the eggs to room temperature first.

Room temperature eggs can help with recipes such as meringue, angel food cake, and Yorkshire pudding. They can also help ingredients blend more evenly in some baked goods.

How to Bring Eggs to Room Temperature

Need room temperature eggs quickly? Place the eggs in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. This gently warms the eggs before you add them to your recipe.

Always keep eggs refrigerated when you are not using them. Take out only the eggs you need for your recipe.
