Substitute Avocado for Butter

If you are looking for a good substitute to butter in your recipes, try out avocado. It can be used as a substitute for butter in recipes such as cookies, muffins, or cakes. It’s a good substitute because it will add in a lot of vitamins and minerals to your baked goods. It is also high in unsaturated fats which makes it perfect for using in baked goods that use butter which is high in saturated fat.
 
To substitute it, for most recipes you can use it on a one to one ratio. It will vary with some recipes. Also in some cases you may need to add in a bit of liquid to make for a thinner batter. As you can see avocados can turn a typical bake good like cookie and cakes into a healthier version. Give it a try.
