If you occasionally treat your family members to homemade baked goods, you probably know that butter is one of the important ingredients.

However, it is precisely because of this product that desserts become more caloric.

As it turns out, the amount of oil can be reduced by half if you know one trick.

What can replace this component?

If you bake often, you may want to have some fruits or vegetables on hand that can act as a substitute for an important ingredient.

It is worth noting that when working with various cakes, it is worth using apples to replace butter. But pumpkin will be an excellent choice for working with yeast baked goods (buns, for example), spiced bread, biscuits and other options.

How to Use Apples and Pumpkin Properly

The method of using the products will be approximately the same. You will need to grind the required amount of the product. As a rule, the proportions will be identical: for 50 grams of oil, take the same amount of apples or pumpkin.

The products are chopped into cubes, boiled with a small amount of water until soft and then brought to a puree state using a blender.
