- Substitute applesauce (plain or cinnamon), pureed pineapple or pumkin, or mashed bananas for the oil in your recipes.
- Substitute reduced-fat sour cream or cream cheese for full-fat versions - but do not use fat free versions when you bake.
- Substitute low-fat buttermilk for sour cream.
- Use cocoa instead of baking chocolate.
- Replace 2 egg whites for one whole egg - save 5 grams of fat.
- Skip the frosting. Cupcakes are yummy all by themselves.
- Make smaller cupcakes (fill the cupcake liners with less batter) or make minis. Just don't eat more cupcakes because they are smaller!
- Give some away! When you make a batch, don't keep them all. Give some to friends.
