Are you wondering how to make a cake without eggs? You have landed on the right page. Making egg-free cakes shouldn't be a problem anymore. I have a huge collection of recipes with tips and tricks for baking eggless cakes and eggless cupcakes without any difficulty.
How to substitute eggs in cakes?
The most commonly used egg alternatives for cakes will be silken tofu, yogurt, pureed fruit, vinegar (in specific recipes, strictly not for recipes that uses more than 1 egg).
Personally, I found a winning combination to substitute for eggs in cakes, which is a mix of yogurt and pureed silken tofu. It works out beautifully, especially in plain vanilla sponge cakes.

Anitha says
Why does some of the cake have vinegar and do I have to use it.
Madhuram says
Vinegar is used in egg free baking recipes to give the fluffy texture that eggs give. Care should be taken not to use too much vinegar because it will give an after taste. But when used in the right quantity you will get airy and light eggless cakes/cupcakes.
Pooja says

lalalulu1985 says
what is the egg replacer powder called? I've been trying to find out for ages but don't seem to be able to find out
Madhuram says
The brand which is pretty popular is Ener-G but there are other brands too like Bob's Red Mill egg replacer and here in Canada we get something else too, don't remember the name now. These are easily available in stores in the US and Canada. Not sure about other countries.
Bee Mistry says
HI Benji. lovely website. For the Vanilla Cupcakes, instead of Ener-G egg replacer power, how much butter milk can I use.
Madhuram says
I have got mixed reviews about that recipe already. So not sure how it will work out omitting the egg replacer powder and using butter instead of that. It would be too much fat.
Alka says
What is the recipe for masala cake??
Madhuram says
What sort of masala cake Alka?
Nayana says
Hello madhuram ,
Very nice website . Even we are vegetarians and eating cake was a far of thing. But having discovered your site those cravings can be taken care of. Thank you so much. A recipe for a cupcake calls for 1 large egg and 2 large egg whites. What is the best substitute in this case?
Madhuram says
Thank you very much Nayana. I will have to see the other ingredients too but I guess 1/2 cup of yogurt or 1/4 cup of yogurt and 1/4 of pureed silken tofu should be fine.
neellavathi says
I love to bake eggless cakes and muffins as few members of my family are vegetarians, including myself. I did try eggless vanilla butter cake, orange cake and banana cake but they didnot turn out well. I really don't know which part I went wrong. Please help.
Madhuram says
Was it the recipes here or from somewhere else? If mine let me know how it didn't turn out well and I might be able to help you.

I really don't know Teri. Sorry.
debbie says
My recipe for yellow cake calls for 3 eggs and I only have 2. Can I substitute something else? Time is short so I can't get to the grocery.

Hello
I used to love a spicy omlettes with chillies and onion but became a vegan.I have tried several egg substitutes like cornmeal, silken tofu, etc to make a good omlette like the original but have not been successful. Can
you suggest an optimum mix of substitutes to make a good omlette?
