What two options promote healthy eating when making pastry products?

1. Use whole-wheat flour instead of refined flour. Whole-wheat flour is a whole grain that contains all three parts of the kernel – the bran, the germ, and the endosperm. This makes it a good source of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Refined flour has been stripped of the bran and the germ, so it has less nutritional value.

2. Use healthy oils instead of butter. Healthy oils, such as olive oil, canola oil, and avocado oil, are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which can help to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. Butter is high in saturated fat, which can raise cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease.
