    The flax seed cupcake produced under-baked, completely sunken, 75% cooked cupcakes. 10% of the people liked them better than the applesauce cupcakes.  Overall, the applesauce egg substitute produced better-baked cupcakes than the flax seed egg substitute. It was interesting to see how the flax seed cupcakes didn’t cook all the way through, even though they were in the oven for 20 minutes.

The results could have been affected by the fact that I used different flavors of cake mix for the two trials. In the future, I will get the same flavor cake mix. It would be interesting to see how the substitutes would work in homemade cupcakes.]]> 2017-06-09 14:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sr95841/p2osdep46j8j/wish/175890094 Graph sr95841 https://padlet.com/sr95841/p2osdep46j8j/wish/175890737 2017-06-09 14:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sr95841/p2osdep46j8j/wish/175890737
