How do you keep a vegan cake from crumbling?
Chef's answer
I use vinegar and nut milk in mine without issue. Hope that helps. I have had the dry crumbly issue in the past as well. I solved it by baking the cakes until just done when tested with a toothpick then letting them cool completely in their pans.

A-Meatloaves most often crumble when they contain too many bread crumbs or too few eggs or when they have not cooled partially in the fat-filled loaf pan in which they were baked. We suggest adding no more than 1/3 cup of crumbs for each pound of meat and adding 1 egg for each pound of meat plus an extra egg.14 Apr 1988.

If the meat warms, the protein and fats in the sausage can separate, causing the sausage to break when it cooks, resulting in a coarse, grainy texture. It's also a good idea to chill the grinder and stuffer attachments before using.
