Holidays baking alone isn't fun. Baking any day and enjoying big'o'little treats fresh out of the oven is yummo!
Remember the time when you asked your mom for a recipe complaining yours doesn't come out the same as hers? Or times when you hear it's pure love in mom's cooking.
Well! That LOVE is BUTTER!!!!
Thanks to modern life, our bodies cannot process all that love. Does that mean no to baked goodies? Not for me. This weekend had a great weekend with friends with an elaborate brunch. The centerpiece was my no oil/butter spice zucchini whole wheat breakfast bread. And the party could not find a difference.
Find your fav zucchini bread recipe &
Make friends with --
Applesauce: Substitute applesauce in equal proportion of butter/oil
Whole Wheat Flour: Substitute whole wheat flour in equal proportion of all purpose flour
A pinch extra baking soda: With above change, add a pinch of extra baking powder than asked in the recipe
People can get all confused especially when ingredients change in baking recipes. But don't. Things are simpler than you may think.
To make sure, I don't overindulge, even though this revised recipe cuts down big time on fat, sugar and adds good fiber from whole wheat flour, I shard it with friends and froze some of the remaining slices.
Ahh! Life is beautiful.

Just substitute ingredients as suggested in the blog if you are going for low calorie, high fiber, low fat recipe. I bet the taste is no different.
