Take
a turn at healthful holiday baking by substituting canola oil for solid fats, advises
the Washington
Post in
an article this week. “Solid fats are fats that are solid at room temperature
(i.e. butter and shortening). Most are high in saturated fats or trans fats, which tend to raise ‘bad’
LDL cholesterol levels and increase the risk for heart disease,” the author
explains. The article includes a
host of sensible baking tips to help readers transform their favorite recipes
into healthier (yet still flavourful) treats such as this spiced apple cake with canola oil.
