Baking Substitutions Printable

Baking Substitutions Printable

How many times have you been right in the middle of baking something only to realize you were missing an ingredient? You end up googling “butter substitution” or “can I use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour,” and while the internet is full of amazing substitution ideas, it’s kind of a pain! I decided we need a cute baking substitutions printable for our own kitchen. It goes in my Recipe Binder and is right there when I need it, and I don’t need to worry about getting my phone all covered in flour when I need it! It even matches this cute pantry staples checklist and this measurement conversions printable!

Baking Substitutions Printable

First – I’d love to have you join my 30 Day Meal Plan Challenge! It’s free and a great way to learn how to meal plan (or get some new ideas if you feel stuck).

Here is the information included in the printable – and then you can download the actual printable at the bottom of this post. Stick it in your Recipe Binder for easy access! As I write this, we’re on week five (six?) of staying inside (or at least, away from others), and we’ve had a hard time getting all of the groceries we need/want at our local grocers. We’ve needed some of these substitutions!

I always print out recipes when I find one I love and stick it in a recipe binder. But it’s not a bad idea to print out items like these, too, so they’ll be on hand when you need them.

As baking can sometimes be a very finicky operation, not all recipes will come out the exact same texture when you make certain substitutions.  You may need to practice and perfect your favorite recipes with these.

Also, consider moving towards weighing ingredients over using measuring cups. Think in terms of flavors, texture, and how each ingredient affects it when you make substitutions.
