If you know what egg substitutes to use, eggless baking can be quite easy.
Egg substitutes help give baked goodies similar texture and moistness that eggs do. However, to get good results when baking with egg substitutes, it's important to understand the role eggs play in the recipe and choose the egg replacements accordingly. Eggs act as binders, leavening/rising agents, or as moistening agents.

For recipes requiring binders, you can use arrowroot, soy, potato starch or cornstarch powders, pureed fruits and vegetables, silken tofu, or the vegetarian gelatin - agar agar.
For recipes requiring leavening or rising agents, you can use baking soda, baking powder, yogurt or buttermilk, or egg-replacement powders such as Ener-G.
For recipes requiring moisteners, use mashed fruits, fruit juice, milk, or water.

Adding extra vegetable oil along with baking soda and baking powder also helps in getting the texture right.
