A sweet tooth can be a real problem, especially as people age. It becomes more difficult to fight the fat, especially if activity levels have dropped. Luckily, this does not mean that you must give up your love for baked goods; it simply means that you need to learn to bake with fewer calories. This can be done in a few simple ways that either you or your in home care<\/a> provider can teach you.Reduce the Fat Content \u2013 Most baked goods include a lot of fat in the form of oil or butter. In order to reduce the fat, you can cut the amount of the oil or butter in half, replacing it with a moist, yet healthy ingredient. The most common substitutes include applesauce, low fat sour cream or fat free yogurt.Reduce the Eggs \u2013 Many baked goods use a large number of eggs. While this is necessary to create the recipe, you can substitute one egg with \u00bc cup of an egg substitute to reduce the calories.<\/p>\n
