Can i substitute large egg with extra large for baking?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Definitely - there isn't much difference. If a recipe calls specifically for 2-3 jumbo eggs, though, and you have medium, you might want to add an extra medium egg. Better to have more than less.

Answer 3

I do not think so but if a recipe calls for two medium eggs maybe you could try just one large egg

Yes, large eggs can replace medium eggs in cake recipes. If "jumbo" eggs are used, one jumbo = two medium.

Answer 4

It will not make much of a difference. The outcome of extra large eggs will be practically equal to the outcome of large eggs.

Answer 5

Technically, if the recipe was found online, large eggs are the exact same of extra large eggs, and if it wasn't found online, you should be fine.

Answer 6

In most cases yes, but you may have to cut down on a tiny bit of liquid elsewhere in the recipe, otherwise it may end up runnier than intended.

Answer 7

the cake will have too much egg in , but if the recipe says to use larger eggs do so.

Answer 8

Yes.
