That was a "fine enough" substitute before commercial egg replacers got as good and commonplace as they are now. I'll still do it for some recipes as I like the added apple flavor and moisture, but I generally use Ener-G Egg Replacer for replacing eggs in a dough mix and maple syrup for egg washes when vegan baking these days.

maple syrup for egg washes

Holy shit that sounds awesome. And not just as a replacement for egg wash, a maple syrup wash sounds incredible just on it's own merits
