Yesterday involved a lot of baking. It’s definitely on the shortlist of things I love to do. First you get to experiment with flavors and ingredients, then you get to eat it—what’s not to love?

Baking so much, you pick up lots of little tips and tricks, like how yogurt can replace up to 1/2 the oil in any bread recipe without impacting the flavor or texture. I baked this gingerbread using yogurt(recipe to come tomorrow), and now I’m giving you the chance to bake with yogurt, too.

Cookies for sure!
I agree with Julie! Cookies for me!
my grandma’s raisin cake. I could (and have) eaten multiple slices in one sitting…
I love underbaked banana bread! YUM!

This makes incredible banana bread, and instead of subbing applesauce, I’m sure you could use yogurt.
I often, when I am feeling ultra lazy and in the mood for chocolate, will mix 1 container of yogurt with just a box of brownie mix and bake it, and it creates really fudgey, dense brownies.
Definitely cookies…there are so many delicious kinds!
ooh, delicious! I can’t wait to see all of the things you’ve been cooking up (white chocolate ganache?? yum!).
My favorite baked good is whatever I made recently– this time cranberry pecan oat chocolate chip cookies!
My favorite baked good is cheesecake! Yum
i love baking with yogurt! applesauce is another way i like to cut out some of the oil – sometimes all of it! my favorite baked good is chocolate chip cookies, but i loooove making banana bread with yogurt. so good!
i like you on facebook!

love this recipe! i love that you used applesauce and i’m sure you could use yogurt too! 🙂
i tweeted!
Brownies!
I bet your Banana Blondies would work well with yogurt. It would probably add even more moisture, even though they look perfect!
My favorite baked good…I gotta go cookies! Nothing beats ’em! 🙂
My favorite is (any type of) bread and carrot cake!
Lately, I’ve been loving blondies!! The brownie’s tastier cousin =p
tweeted!
On the blondie note, I’d love to try these substituted with yogurt:

I need to stop being lazy and bake on of your recipes. Stat.
Definitely bread. I’m a carb girl, I’m not gonna lie!
My favorite baked good is scones, you can make any flavor (sweet or savory) and I do use yogurt in baking them (I replace all the oil and it still comes out perfect)

I noticed you used canola oil in this recipe, some yogurt might help this very best banana bread 🙂
I liked your facebook page!
My favorite baked good is definitely brownies. Especially with butterscotch chips in them!
I am a sucker for freshly baked bread. Sweets-wise, maybe gingerbread or zucchini bread.
brownies for sure are my favorite. you best get to writin’ that book! 😀
my favorite would be baked oatmeal!
Brownies – the chewy kind!
My favorite thing to bake are chocolate ‘cake-like’ things. I’ve been experimenting a lot with bean versions of things, and adding veggies like beets or using avocado instead of butter. Ditto with yogurt. So, I say cake-like because I’m never sure if I’m going to get something fluffy or fudgy, but it’s all good!

I would substitute the sour cream with yogurt. I think it’ll work just fine and won’t change the taste.
My favorite thing to make is probably sweet bread (pumpkin bread, banana bread) OR any kind of cookies!
I just love a good moist brownie!
Banana bread. Though I love baked rice pudding too!
Warm brownies are one of my favorites!
I tweeted. I am @butterjessfly::)
how can you ask us to pick just one?! 😉 my favorite baked goods are pineapple upside down cake, carrot cake, and banana bread. oh and beer bread 🙂
first thing i would bake would be that stinkin gingerbread that you teased us with in the post! can’t wait to see the recipe tomrorow!
tweeted! @cox_2446
oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies! they’re one of the only desserts that i can always make room for.
Walnut kiffels
My favorite baked good is muffins! All kinds are good. It really depends on my mood.
during this time of year, my favorite baked good is probably ANYTHING pumpkin flavored! i also love warm oatmeal cookies!
I would like to try substituting yogurt for oil in this recipe: http://www.recipegirl.com/2007/04/21/whole-wheat-orange-pecan-english-muffin-loaf/
It has been in my favorites for a really long time now.
I already liked The Wannabe Chef on facebook!
http://www.thewannabechef.net/2010/10/25/banana-blondies-with-chocolate-chips/
i wonder how substituting yogurt for the butter in this recipe would turn out?
before i went gluten free, i used to make this banana bread recipe all the time with yogurt: http://ourkitchensink.wordpress.com/2007/12/11/ever-evolving-banana-bread/
Favorite baked good is definitely my mom’s pumpkin bread with raisins!
Freshly baked bread right out of the oven!
I love warm chocolate chip cookies!
I liked you on Facebook.

i use yogurt to substitute for any kind of muffin!!
I never thought I was much of a baked goods person, but GOOD muffins or cookies can win me over.
This one looks seriously delicious:

Liked on facebook! 🙂
Tweeting now and liked on Facebook! I have so many favorites. I still love brownies, but really love experimenting with pumpkin and banana breads.
I’m pretty simple on this question – my favorite baked good is a really good, hot and guey chocolate chip cookie. Like the ones from jacques toress!
I like you on facebook !!
My current favorite thing to bake is pumpkin bread – I’m obsessed!
favorite baked good? hmmm…that is so hard. although, i think i have to say scones. i LOVE scones. but only with coffee. and i’m okay with that.
My favorite thing to bake and munch on? That’s easy – zucchini bread! YUM! Topped with a thick layer of peanut butter too, please 🙂
oooh I would have to say a perfectly doughy chocolate chip cookie!
My favorite baked treats are peanut butter cookies!
I bet you could use a yogurt substitute in this recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/banana-bread-recipe/index.html
I love a good scone. YUM. What a great giveaway!
Brownies are my favorite thing to bake!
Ginger snaps!!! Yum – but I will never make them because I hate making cookies, the in and out and in and out of sheets is too boring for me
I think cookies. I love cookies!
Probably brownies or chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven. Though I wouldn’t turn my nose up at some banana bread, lemon muffins, gingerbread, pumpkin pie, or most other desserts for that matter 😉
Chocolate chip Pumpkin Bread for sure!!

My favorite baked good is zucchini bread! Delicious.
It depends on my cravings; sometimes rhubarb strawberry pie, sometimes a pound cake, sometimes pecan pie, german cake, banana bread, my mom’s amazing chocolate cake with chocolate whipped cream, sponge cake, sometimes a regular yellow cake…. I never get sick of Protein Cakes! So good!

How are you getting so many responses to your giveaway? I’m having trouble getting more than 10 for any of my amazing chocolate giveaway and I’m shocked since I ask so little of the entrants.

Picking just 1 is difficult, it all depends on my mood : oatmeal cookies, carrot cake, gingerbread,pounds cake, cheesecake or a buttery yellow cake.
Growing up, I was a cake girl. I simply couldn’t fathom how my father, wise as he was, could possibly prefer pie. And now here I am, humbly sitting with the epiphany that my favorite baked good is now just that: pie. Maybe coconut cream. Or berry. Or banana cream. Or pecan. Too hard to choose. But in any case, Dad, I have always respected you, but now I also understand you. 🙂
my favorite baked good has to be anything with the chocolate/peanut butter combo!
is it too late?
chocolate chip cookies are always my favorite!!!
