Go to your pantry. Look for that jar of applesauce you bought for a snack but forgot about. Open it, smell it—yep, that’s pure autumn magic.
Next time you bake, swap one egg for that ¼ cup. Don’t tell anyone. Just see the looks on their faces when they bite into a ridiculously moist cake and ask, “What’s your secret?”
You can smile, shrug, and say, “Just an apple a day.” Or you can tell them the truth: the fridge was empty, but the pantry had your back.
Now go bake something. You’ve got a new trick up your sleeve, and it’s deliciously simple.
