I try to bake healthy by substituting olive oil for vegetable oil. Another way to keep baked goods moist without increasing the calories too much is by using apple sauce as a natural sweetener. Sometimes, I use Splenda or another sugar substitute in place of sugar.

This is great. I love the idea of being able to bake healthier. I have tried the bananas for ice cream, which we all enjoy in my household. I have wanted to start baking more with things like agave and different sweeteners like that that are available. These are great ideas. Thanks.
