What a good momma you are! This looks so comforting and yummy. I can imagine this becoming one of those food items your boy grows up associating with fond feel good memories.
Can this recipe be doubled
Yes I am sure it can.
Wouldn’t four eggs be too much though?
Thank you for the nice recipe.
What size pan is needed?
Two mini loaves or 6-inch round cake pan.
Is 4 ounces flour correct? I have never made such a small cake.
Yes. It only takes 110g flour, this makes two mini loaves or 6-inch round cake pan.
Could I substitute a banana for the egg?
I don’t think so you need eggs to make cakes.
No you don’t need eggs for cakes :) just look up the thousands of amazing vegan cake recipes on pinterest. You can use a packaged egg replacer or a flax egg. Try aquafaba + flax/chia egg im sure it’ll try out great :)
