My Cranberry & Pear Cake is tender, fluffy, made with olive oil and kefir for a healthy twist, and paired with an Swiss Meringue Buttercream for an irresistible Thanksgiving dessert!
Lifeway Kefir is a tart and tangy cultured milk that is high in protein, calcium and vitamin D. Thanks to our exclusive blend of kefir cultures, each cup of kefir contains 12 live and active cultures.
Kefir is a delicious substitute for buttermilk, milk, and sometimes water in baking recipes. It produces a healthy twist, while keeping those irresistible flavors. And because it is fermented and cultures, the kefir adds great texture and taste to just about any baked good!
Kefir is one of the healthier fermented foods that tastes similar to drinkable yogurt as it's traditionally made from dairy milk, but there's also non-dairy options available!
Studies suggest that kefir may boost your immune system, aid in digestive problems, improve bone health, and may even combat cancer.
Lifeway Kefir is available in most retail grocers like Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, Food Lion, Harris Teeter, Public, Fresh Market, etc.
Which is awesome for on-the-fly baking excursions 😂
