I need some help
I have a child allergic to nuts and eggs
I decide to do those cupcake http://cakecentral.com/recipes/2247/i-cant-believe-its-not-box-cake-mix-scratch-cupcakes
and I use egg replacer instead of the egg.

the cupcake were delicious
BUT when I took them out of the oven they litteraly deflate! the center was lower than the side.

What cause this? am I wrong with my egg replacer or does I have made a mistakes somewhere in the recipe? have you a better cake/cupcake without egg recipe?

thanks a lot for your help!

We have many allergies in our family, so I'm always trying new recipes for baked goods. But you will have more success if you begin with an allergy-safe recipe to begin with, rather than trying to adjust a recipe or make major substitutions.
