"Boost Box Cake Moistness with Applesauce Ingredient Swap"
Adding applesauce to a box cake mix instead of oil can make the cake moist and tender. Applesauce provides hydration and flavor, while also reducing the cake's fat content and adding nutritional benefits. However, using only applesauce can result in a denser, chewier texture. To achieve a lighter texture, a combination of applesauce and oil can be used as a substitute. This substitution can be applied to any cake recipe that calls for oil or melted butter.
