Best Answer

Eggs provide steam for leavening or moisture for starch. Egg yolks add moisturizing fat and helps emulsify the batter, giving the baked good a smooth and creamy texture. The egg whites act as strengtheners. There are substitutes for fresh eggs, but they do alter the recipe. via craftybaking.com
