Does anybody know a low fat, low sugar, cake recipe?
Ok, first of all, Pillbury has a low sugar cake mix out now. Second, I’m always looking for ways to cut fat from my baking and here’s an example of what I’ve done. This is/was on the back of a cake mix, but I altered it, I always do that. So, here’s what I changed: Strawberry Yogurt Cake 1 box of Betty Crocker Supermoist Golden Vanilla Cake Mix 3/4 c. water 1/3 c. oil (I used 1/3 cup of applesauce instead) 3 egg whites (I use the pasteurized egg whites in a carton) 1- 6oz carton of Yoplait 99% fat free strawberry yogurt (I used totally fat free yogurt) (I added an additional 2 tsp. of strawberry flavoring) Heat oven at 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients. Bake in a standard size pan, 8″, 9″, or 13x2x9, for about 30 minutes. I never use oil in my boxed cake mixes. Always applesauce or yogurt. I never use whole eggs, only egg whites. The oil has all the fat and the egg yolks contain the cholesterol. By omitting the two, you are cutting down on two big health issues….
