SUMMARY
A 10" skillet from a 7-piece set is suitable for making a skillet cake, as confirmed by forum participants. Users recommend using only 2/3 of the original recipe to prevent overfilling, drawing comparisons to frittata recipes that use fewer eggs in smaller skillets. The depth of the skillet also plays a role in the cooking process, with the 12" skillet being deeper than the 10". Overall, the consensus is that a cake can be successfully baked in a 10" skillet with proper adjustments.
