Yesterday I told you about the Smucker’s 4th annual Spreading Smucker’s Traditions Recipe and Essay Contest. Today, I would like to share a favorite recipe by the CEO of The J.M. Smucker Company, Richard Smucker.
Adding jam in place of fat in recipes does not always translate well. You will need to use a fruit puree which can replace about half the fat in a recipe. Smucker’s does make a fruit puree which can replace fat in recipes. You will have to do some experimenting as many times replacing fat in recipes does not work as you would expect. However, it is a nice alternative with the right recipe. Replace your cream cheese or butter on your bagel with jam and you will add in the flavor and cut out the fat.
