Tips for Healthier Baking:
- Use natural sweeteners: Instead of refined sugar, opt for natural alternatives like honey, maple syrup, or stevia.
- Reduce overall sugar content: Even when using natural sweeteners, be mindful of the amount you add. Consider reducing the quantity by 1/3 to 1/2 of what a traditional recipe calls for.
- Incorporate healthier fats: Replace butter or shortening with heart-friendly options like avocado, coconut oil, or Greek yogurt.
- Add moisture with natural ingredients: Enhance the texture and flavor of your baked goods by using mashed fruits, vegetables, or unsweetened applesauce.
- Use whole grain or alternative flours: Substitute all-purpose flour with healthier options like whole wheat, almond, or oat flour.
- Reduce overall flour content: Consider replacing some of the flour with alternative ingredients like ground nuts, oats, or coconut flour.
- Bake at lower temperatures for longer: This technique helps prevent excessive browning and maintains moisture.
- Don't overmix: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense texture. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
