in #makeithealthy8 years ago

Weather you want to bake, and you look at your cupboards like Mother Hubbard without the right ingredients needed to create your recipe, or your wanting to play with a recipe to make it more healthier what ingredients can you alternate.

Measurements may need to be played around with to get the right sweet flavor to your liking.
For 1 cup or sugar alternate 3/4 a cup of either dates, figs or a mixture
alternate appoxly 2 teaspoons of honey - if you like like sweet you may want to add more.
or you may want to try an over ripe Banana for sweetness also

Alternative to Eggs is either 3 tablespoons of grounded Linseed or Hemp Seeds mixed with 1 tablespoon of water.

Butter


Coconut Oil can replace butter, unsure of measurements. - may be half of what the butter recipe says.
When trying to remember if Olive oil was a alternative for butter, in the research landed on a site that has six different alternatives to butter here -

Flour


Alternatives to everyday flour are organic, spelt, grinding your own flour from seeds, or using rolled oats - haven't tried these options out yet.


Have learnt alot of this from reading and making recipes created by @woman-onthe-wing, also chating with people that are Vegan.

Your post has been featured in issue #2 of the MAKE IT HEALTHY PROJECT MAGAZINE. Another great post my friend! :-)

Thank you so much had to duplicate the messages to see if I was seeing right, that two of my posts were picked, Really appreciate what you do, Thank you:D

such an informative post! I tried most of these healthy alternatives and are great!!

Thank you, what's your view on the taste that they leave on the product you produce when using the alternatives, the same or better tasting?

for example, dates are sweeter than sugar imo
and I definitely prefer coconut oil instead of classic butter!

As an alternative for flour, maybe the coconut one or almond flour!

Thanks for replying, haven't tried coconut flour or almond flour before as a alternative.

It's really good trying to find alternative ways to prepare foods. It's even better when one can save a bit of money while doing it. Thanks for your input.

😆 ★★good post!!; 😆

Have you tried or use any alternatives when cooking or baking?
