Instead of Regular Butter:
Substitute Apple Butter made with stevia instead of regular butter for a special treat that will keep your taste buds satisfied.
Recipe: Easy Apple Butter:
7 cups applesauce
7 tsp stevia clear liquid
¼ cup vinegar
1 tsp. cinnamon or allspice
Combine all ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Bring to boil on high heat and turn down and let boil for 15 minutes; stirring occasionally. Pour into jars and seal at once.
Please remember when cooking and baking with stevia that for every 1 cup of sugar that is replaced by stevia there should be 1/3 cup of a liquid or other “bulk” added to the recipe. The liquid is needed to create the bulk affect that the sugar normally would. A few liquid substitutions include:
Yogurt
Apple sauce
Apple butter
100% Fruit juice: apple, pineapple, grape etc.
Fruit puree
Egg whites (use egg substitute)
Water
Any liquid that pertains to the recipe will work just fine, for example, use extra banana puree for the liquid in a banana bread recipe.
I finally found a vegan recipe for chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I am not sure how it will be received, so I will keep you on the edge of your seat and let you know after tomorrow night.
