Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute eggs in this recipe?
Yes, you can use a flaxseed meal or chia seed mix as an egg substitute. For each egg, mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal or chia seeds with 2.5 tablespoons of water, let it sit for a few minutes until it thickens, and then use it in the recipe.
How should I store leftover orange rolls?
Store any leftover orange rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil for up to 2 months.
What should I do if my cake doesn't roll easily?
If your cake is breaking while rolling, it may be overbaked. To prevent this, ensure you bake it only until it's set and slightly springy to the touch. If it's already baked, try gently warming it in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it before attempting to roll again.
