Can you bake a box cake with 1 egg?

Yes, it is possible to bake a box cake with only 1 egg. While most box cake mixes call for 3 eggs, you can reduce this number to one without sacrificing too much in terms of texture or flavor. Here are some tips for baking a box cake with 1 egg:

- Use a combination of water and oil to replace the missing eggs. For every egg you omit, add 1/4 cup of water and 1/4 cup of oil.

- Increase the baking time by about 5-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

- The cake may be slightly denser than if you used 3 eggs, but it will still be moist and flavorful.

Here is an example recipe for a 1-egg box cake:
