How to Replace the Eggs to Make A Box Cake?
Replace the eggs with 1/4 of plain yogurt.
My #1 Tip to Make a Cake Mix Box without Eggs.
I like to add 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour to improve the cake’s texture. After a lot of testing, I noticed that when I don’t add the flour the cake is TOO fluffy and difficult to frost/decorate. So, adding the flour is totally optional but highly recommended.

is it possible to use greek yogurt – that is all I have or home made yogurt
Hello Jas! The greek yogurt is thicker than the regular, so I would suggest adding a couple of tablespoons of milk to dissolve the yogurt. Thanks for your interest in my recipe. Please come back and let me know how you like it =)

Hi Oriana,
I gave this recipe a try using both your suggestions of 1/4 cup yougurt and 1/4 cup all purpose flour along with the boxed cake mix from betty crocker n rest of the ingredients as per the box.. but once the cake baked and I let it cool for abt 30 mins before demolding it, but whn i tried slicing the cake it was too soft n just kept crumbling.. i just had to scoop it out with spoon.. i don’t know what went wrong please advice.
thank you.
Hello Natasha! I could try adding a 1/4 cup more of yogurt. Make sure you are not overbaking the cake. It sounds to me like the cake is too dry and these can be caused by baking it too long. Hope this helps!
I have a doubt for better Crocker they will add 3 eggs …my doubt is for each egg I have to use 1/4 cup of yogurt or instead of 3 eggs I have to use 1/4 th cup of yogurt
Hello Sindhu! You have to add 1/4 cup of plain yogurt per box. Hope this helps! Thanks for your interest in my recipe. Please come back and let me know how you like it =)
