Substitute for eggs in baking for cake

When replacing a large egg in cake baking, these substitutions offer the best balance of moisture, binding, and texture.

Silken Tofu

1 oz silken tofu
When blended smooth, it adds necessary density and moisture without imparting a strong flavor, creating a stable cake structure.

Flax Egg

1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water
While it binds well, the resulting gel and nutty flavor can make the cake denser and alter the taste, making it less ideal for delicate cakes.
