Tips to Bake with Less Fat

Skip the Oil or Butter

Use half the butter or oil called for and replace the amount of fat eliminated with prune puree. For example, if the recipe calls for 1 cup butter or oil, use 1/2 cup butter or oil and 1/2 cup prune puree. You can puree your own prunes, purchase pureed prunes, or use prune baby food. You’ll want to strain the baby food to remove excess water.
