If the recipe calls for baking powder or baking soda, it is unlikely that a substitution would be successful. One might try beating the egg whites to incorporate air into the batter. If the batter is light enough, the air in the egg white might expand enough while baking to provide some lift to the final product.

∙ 11y agoBaking power is a leavener consisting of a base and an acid that create CO2 gas when wet. For a tbsp of baking powder substitute 1 tsp of baking soda, 1/2 of cornstarch and either 1 1/2 tsp of cream of tartar, citric acid. If you do not have powered acid, add 1 tbsp of vinegar such as lemon juice to the liquid part of your batter.
