How to Make Eggless Cake in the Oven

There are a great many people who don't like or are allergic to many of the common ingredients found in baked goods, such as eggs. Fortunately, just about every one of the basic ingredients in a cake can be substituted or omitted, including eggs. There are many different things that you can replace an egg with, but one popular alternative for baked goods is a banana.
