It will make a much less dense cake on its own, but be a bit on the crumbly side. Add 1/4 tsp of baking powder to each banana if you need it to rise for a really light cake, but keep in mind the crumble-factor.

Vegan baking is a piece of cake (pun intended) if that's the only restriction! 1 smallish mashed banana = 1 egg. Any milk can be substituted for a nut milk. Earth Balance or Smart Balance Lite are both vegan margarine. Any heavy cream can be replaced with one of the coconut/soy creamers sold at...

About 1 hour north of the city. I just moved back to the area after almost 15 years away, so I'm still looking around, myself. Indian and Asian food are usually my default choices though. And then there's always my good friend, Chipotle :D

I don't know why people fall into these fad dietary trends. I even gave my wife grief until the doctor tested everything and came back with the results. My goal is to open an "allergy friendly" restaurant some day because I think I've been exposed to damn near every kind there is! Also worked...

Thanks to pretty much everyone for the replies! These are a weekly weekend meal I make, so I'm going to try some things next Saturday. Just one added note: I use hulled (no hull) buckwheat and a Vitamix to grind the buckwheat... which pretty much creates a fine dust, so it isn't exactly a...

I'll try various types of oils. In the past, I've used a couple types of margarine but didn't notice a difference. They may be a factor at lower elevations though. Unfortunately, the best egg replacers that are non-commercial are usually a fruit puree with baking powder. Others that use flax...

A little background on this first... My family has celiac disease (wife and son) so any gluten/wheat recipes are out. My son is allergic to oats, so any recipe with oats is also out. My wife is semi-allergic to soy, so most soy is not an option. The entire family has been vegan for a decade...

So you're trying to get meatiness out of eggplant, I take it? The dish sounds like an Italian take on an Indian Eggplant Bharta. I've been experimenting with these things for years. Maybe I could suggest a thing or two: 1. Diced mushrooms. Diced very fine, add a bit of "bite" to a softer...
