Dried Plum Puree

Dried plum puree adds moisture, richness and nutrients to a variety of baked goods. It is an excellent substitute for fats (butter, oil, shortening) in recipes. A good starting point is to replace half of the butter, oil or shortening called for with an equal amount of puree. Adjust as needed for future recipes.
