I love Agave for baking. Its a bit pricey but the flavor is wonderful. It doesn't give you that sickly sweet sort of taste.
I use the dark agave to replace molasses and the light to replace honey in recipes.

I bet you could sub applesauce or mashed sweet potatoes in this for a different taste. Sounds good!
