Healthy Baking

[JaraAma88]

Is it worth it to bake healthy or not? I have all the intentions in baking healthy but then I realized where is the fun. The act of making something sinfully sweet that's bad for you is a rush.So which do you prefer?

i think so, the substituted baked goods taste better in my opinion

It really depends on what you're baking but there are some ways to make baking healthier without compromising. For instance, oil. You can substitute half of the oil for applesauce and you really won't notice the difference. I almost never use the full amount of sugar, even just skimping slightly most people don't notice. No, it doesn't make it "healthy" but maybe just a little less bad for you :)

We bake alot of things that are really indulgent as well as healthier for us.  My favorite fall treat is apple pie.  We decrease the sugar content and usually add abit more lemon juice so it stays sweet.

I think it's worth it for most of my baking.  But sometimes you just want to be a little bad and bake something that good but so bad for you.

I like it to be on the healthier side. I've learned how to make some really tasty, but secretly healthy, baked goods. Of course, I've had my failures, too. But oh, well, that's how I learn. :)
