Egg substitutions?

mashed banana, about 1/2 a large one works good. x

Thanks:D Just a note of caution. I don't think the milk trick will work with a standard cake recipe. It works with the muffins because of the baking powder which is what gives them their 'lift'.

Soya flour works quite well - 1 heaped tbsp plus 1 tbsp water.

Or, try looking up vegan cake recipes on Google

I made a big cake with the muffin recipe worked a treat, that mix made 2, but seems to vanish even quicker than the little ones. We did cherry and chocolate this weekend as noone could decide what to have, apart from DS2 who wanted to make them green as usual :rolleyes: he likes green everything ! Very nice

I might invest in some soya flour myself, I was going to buy powdered egg, but if that works the same. When I have eggs I have loads (like now there is about 45 in the kitchen) but then I run out and don't realise.

The eggs are there mainly for the rising I think. Using baking powder and then adding a bit of cider vinegar right at the end gives the lift you will need. Personally I find the texture of vegan cakes far better.
