Ground flaxseed
Next, our list of egg substitutes for baking cakes is highly nutritious and will give your creation a fluffy texture. Use one tablespoon of flaxseed and three tablespoons of lukewarm water instead of one egg.
Ground chia seeds
Chia seeds are another proper seed that you can use to make all kinds of cakes. For example, you can use 1 tbsp of chia seeds and 3 tbsp of lukewarm water instead of one egg and bake your next anniversary or birthday cake.
Vinegar and Baking Soda

Curd
Yoghurt has been used for ages as a substitute for eggs. You can use 1/4 cup, or 60 grams, of yoghurt, and the cake will turn out precisely the same as if you made it with eggs.
