No, you can't replace eggs with cornstarch in a cake recipe. The eggs make the cake light and springy. You can replace three tablespoons of cake flour with three tablespoons of cornstarch if you like. Cornstarch does help lighten the cake, but it must not be used as a substitute for eggs.

∙ 11y agoNo, corn starch is too sticky and thin so you can not substitute wheat flour based pancake mix for cornstarch, but you can combine it with a little wheat flour, baking soda and water for a creamier and somewhat sloppier pancake.

How do you make vegan chocolate cake?
You can make any chocolate cake recipe vegan by substituting vegan alternatives for eggs and dairy products. Traditional (non-vegan) chocolate cake is usually made with eggs, and cake frosting is often made with milk. In place of eggs, you can use silken tofu, mashed banana or applesauce, or a commercial egg replacer such as Ener-G (sold at natural food markets and some conventional grocery stores. You can also buy it online). Alternatively, you can use "flax eggs" or "chia eggs" using ground flax meal or chia seeds (in place of each egg, use 1 Tbsp flaxseed meal or chia seeds mixed with 2 Tbsp water). Corn starch mixed with water (2 Tbsp corn starch to 3 Tbsp water per egg) also works well. In place of milk (for the frosting or icing) you can substitute soy milk or any non-dairy milk of your choosing.

How does the amount of eggs used in a cake affect how high it rises?
The eggs are to hold the cake together and it's the bicarbonate or baking powder that causes the cake to rise. Try 2 teaspoons of flax powder mixed with half a cup of water.
