    I would say cakes with fruits or vegetables incorporated in them, so carrots, courgettes, beetroots or bananas for example.

  • ravensfan  on  May 26, 2016

    Butter!

  • t.t  on  May 26, 2016

    I'm a great fan of adding fruits or vegetables (e.g. zucchini bread, banana bread, etc.).

  • sarahawker  on  May 26, 2016

    Coconut flour

    I love using coconut sugar – a lovely caramel flavour & so much better for your blood sugar levels.

  • JanScholl  on  May 27, 2016

    I try to use only organics and get as close to vegan as I can. I make a mean black bean brownie with no sugar, no flour and fresh Michigan walnuts.

    I love using grains- in crusts and fillings

  • Orielle  on  May 27, 2016

    I always use organic cane sugar which tastes so much better than conventional and is healthier ( a little at least!) for you.

  • Sfgordon  on  May 27, 2016

    I've recently been on a gluten free/few grains diet and I have enjoyed using alternative flours like coconut flour, almond meal and polenta in baking.

    I incorporate olive oil into a lot of my baked goods.

  • sgump  on  May 27, 2016

    I love to replace as much fat (butter or oil) as I can in baked goods with applesauce (or pureed carrots, or pureed prunes).

    Well, healthy is a relative term. Butter is better than some other fats, but I also use olive oil in some baked goods. Buttermilk, whole grains/whole grain flours, nuts …

    coconut oil, because it makes everything better!

  • SLane  on  June 18, 2016
