Any suggestions on baking a cake without eggs?

Question

I need to bake a cake & I have no eggs! Any suggestions? Please help!

Answer 1

Mayonnaise

Which is made from eggs, sounds gross but it works and you can't taste it. It also makes the cake more moist.
Use one heaping teaspoon for each egg it calls for. So if you're using two eggs, use two big teaspoons full.

Here's a recipe for making a Nut cake without eggs. http://recipes.ashwita.com/2007/07/eggless-nut-cake.html

I think in general, just substitude eggs in a recipe with some added baking soda and some aerated drink, and that should do the trick.

Answer 6

7/11, they sell eggs at all hours of the night.

Answer 7

1/2 a banana is a good substitute for one egg.
and 1/4 cup of applesauce also equals one egg.
the only catch is sometimes you can taste the banana, but i still prefer it over the applesauce. the texture seems to be better.

Answer 8
