I am not a baker, so this might be a silly question. What would happen if you keep the yolks in?
If you have to take the yolk out you can make an omelette with it. The yolk is the healthiest part of the egg. The healthy fats, protein, nutrients ...mmm I think I will eat eggs today lol
I have no idea what would happen. I guess the recipe leaves them out because they have a lot more fat than protein. And I'm not much of a baker either to be honest. Just a biologist who knows how to take care for yeast and asked her mom about the secrets of bread-making.
Maybe I could make an omelette, you're right, but wouldn't an all-yolk omelette be kind of weird? I don't know... maybe I'll do it next time :)
