Better Baking with Avocados From Mexico Sweepstakes

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Avocados from Mexico. All opinions are 100% mine.

We love avocados both as a fruit and a cooking ingredient. I just learned that  Avocados from Mexico can be used to make baked goods better. Simply replace the butter or oil in your recipe with an equal amount of pureed avocado, and your pastry will come out richer, healthier and more moist.

 

I just entered Avocados from Mexico's Better Baking Sweepstakes, which offers a ton of exciting prizes. One Grand Prize winner will take home a $2,500 iCard Gift Card, while 10 second prize winners will each receive a $100 iCard Gift Card. In addition, 500 third prizes are up for grabs, each including a $25 iCard Gift Card. It is amazing how many winners there will be and how valuable the prizes are!
