Milk allergy or lactose intolerance.
Follow a vegetarian diet.
Follow a diet to reduce weight.
Suffering from heart problems or high cholesterol in the body.
Strange alternatives to butter... including avocado!
Apple sauce
It is often used as a substitute for oil in recipes, but it can also be used as a substitute for butter and works best with cake recipes.
avocado
The use of avocado contributes to reducing calories and adding a soft taste to baked goods, and it is an ideal substitute for butter.
Yogurt and oil
We can use a mixture of equal amount of yogurt and oil equivalent to the same amount of butter in the recipe, so it will be a good substitute for butter in cake recipes.
Ghee
Some people use ghee as a substitute for butter in cooking, as it contains less casein and lactose, which makes it more suitable for those who suffer from milk and lactose intolerance, but it contains a higher percentage of saturated fats, so we must use it carefully.
Nut butter
Peanut and almond butter, for example, is similar in texture to butter, it remains somewhat cohesive at room temperature, and it also adds the taste of nuts in sweets, and we can use it in cookies, biscuits and cake recipes in particular.
Margarine
Margarine is one of the most po[CENSORED]r alternatives to butter, and it contains fewer calories and saturated fats, but it also contains unsaturated and unhealthy fats, so it is recommended to use it in small quantities.
oils
Oils are a good substitute for butter in cooking. Oils such as vegetable oil, olive oil, coconut oil, and flaxseed oil contain fats, but they are healthy fats that benefit the body. These oils include omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids, which are good for heart health.
