Yes! When substituting applesauce in baking, You would use 1/4 of a cup of apple sauce to replace 1/4 of a cup oil. Except in cookies though. Sometimes that wouldn't work though.

Yes, you can. 1 cup of applesauce can replace 1 cup of oil. (For best results, replace either the oil or the eggs in a baking recipe with a fat-free substitute, but not both.)

I'd use 1/2 of each so it stays moist.

What can you substitute for vegetable oil in baking cake?

I'm a huge fan of replacing oil with applesauce. If the recipe calls for 1/2 c. of oil, I use 1/2 c. applesauce as a healthy alternative. You will not taste apple regardless of the cake's flavor. If you don't keep applesauce in your home you can also use sour cream, or plain yogurt in the same way. Best of luck! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm!! leaving out the shortening will affect the texture of the cake, I will not say the above answer is wrong but try it on a small cake first.
