    You can make your own applesauce. It can be time consuming, but at least you know what is in it! :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    Homemade applesauce in the crockpot. Look it up on skinnytaste.com :-) Also berry flavored baby food should work

    you can also make your own compote, you know. apples, pears, etc. you can eat it or use it in the recipe.

    bet i'll bet there are other low-fat cake mi x recipes - i do not think "brownie mix and soda" is an option.

    I have used sour cream (it makes it nice and rich) and yogurt in place of oil. I also make my own applesauce and have used that.

    When using the can of Soda (It's hard to say that..LOL..I say pop) do you use the whole can?

    Yes - a 12-ounce can of diet soda. This same trick works on cake mixes, too! The other day I did a yellow cake mix, 1 can of diet orange Crush and baked it. Then I poked holes in it to do a Jell-O poke cake.... used sugar free orange Jell-O and 1 c. hot water - poured that over the top into them holes. Let it cool totally. Frosted it with Lite Cool Whip. It's a low-cal totally scrumptious orange dreamsicle cake!! I found out about the diet soda cake recipe trick about 2 months ago, and will NEVER bake a cake with eggs and oil again.

    Bumping to try out some of these ideas later. Especially the black bean idea...the kids and I like black beans but we've never tried them in a brownie. Sounds like a tasty way to get some extra fiber and protein in :smile:
