In an apple cake recipe, it probably would not make much difference if you were to only use two eggs instead of three.

If you are concerned, add a tablespoon of mayonnaise for the last egg. In many, many recipies a tablespoon of mayonnaise can be substituted for an egg without any difference in taste.

One to three depending on the recipe.


I only have 3 eggs and recipe calls for 4 it's a duncan hines yellow pound cake that I am making will it be ok with 3 eggs?

If you only use the 3 eggs, the cake will probably end up sort of dry and crumbly. Instead, add a little yogurt, extra oil, or water.

No. There may be a very light hint of apple taste, but eggs do not contribute much if any flavor. There will not be a big difference and it will still taste wonderful!


How do you change a boxed cake recipe for different size cake pans for instancea teired cake?

You really don't need to change the recipe. The only thing I would suggest is baking the cake with duck eggs (if you can find them) instead of chicken eggs because they make the cake hold better. They make the cake less crumbly or unstable. Hope this helps. :)

Can i forgo the eggs recipe for box cake calls for 3 egg whites i have no eggs and no applesauce what can i do?

A box cake calling for 3 egg whites would not rise properly without the egg whites. Applesauce is not a suitable substitute for egg whites. Possible solutions would be to borrow eggs from a neighbor, or prepare a different dessert using available ingredients.


What happens if you use only one egg for a store bought cake mix that requires three eggs?

It will be slightly less moist, and may crumble or be a bit mroe dry and hold together less well than a cake made with all three eggs. But since two out of the three were still used, it probably won't be that bad.


Can you just use whites if the recipe calls for whole eggs?

No. Egg yolks are required.


Can i substitute large egg with extra large for baking?

You can substitute extra large eggs for baking. The important thing to remember here is the amount of liquid you are putting in your baked item. For example, if you are making a cake that calls for three large eggs, you can probably substitute that with two extra large eggs, because it makes the same amount of liquid.
