Tips

In a dessert recipe, ingredients substitution can be a lifesaver when you're missing a key element. If you're out of buttermilk, simply mix together milk and vinegar as a substitute. Applesauce can replace oil or butter in baking recipes, while yogurt can stand in for sour cream. Nut milk can be used instead of regular milk for a dairy-free option, and mashed bananas work well in place of eggs. Keep these ingredient swaps in mind and you'll be able to salvage any recipe in a pinch.
