#bakingwithapplesauce

[vincentdesjardinsdraws]

I made blueberry pear waffles this morning as I do every other Sunday but this time, as I went to mix the batter (which I always do the night before because the batter uses yeast) I realized I was out of butter. After a quick internet search, I learned you could substitute unsweetened applesauce for butter in baking recipes. Since I had an unopened jar of applesauce in the cupboard, I gave it a try. They turned out to be delicious, although slightly dryer than the waffles I’ve made with butter. It was also more difficult getting them out of the waffle iron. The butter makes them moister and some of it leaches out and helps oil the waffle iron making them easier to remove. Next time I think I will try the recipe using half the amount of butter and use applesauce as a substitute for the remainder. #baking #sundaywaffles #sundaybreakfast #bakingwithapplesauce #yeastwaffles #adventuresinbaking https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ycesaHtra/?igshid=bo5keqwr8nt3
