You substitute applesauce in equal amounts to the oil. Applesauce works well in almost all baked items, but not in brownies. The brownies do not taste the same and seem to be dry without the oil.
When baking brownies from a boxed mix, I have had great success substituting applesauce for the oil and also using egg whites instead of the yolks. My daughter used to kid me about all my low fat recipes until she ate the brownies.....after hearing how much she liked them, I told her what I did! I have become very conscious of cooking low fat since my husband had a heart stent placed several years ago....not in a major artery but still... I do admit that if I want to really "dress up" the brownies, I also have added some semi-sweet Chocolate Chips &/or chopped walnuts in moderation. Enjoy!
When trying to reduce fats in a recipe, you can substitute applesauce for oil (one for one, in this case, half for half.) Be aware that for things where the interaction of the oil and other ingredients is significant to the finished product (like in cookies) replacing all the oil with applesauce will give a noticeable difference to the result. In the example I mentioned, you often get 'cakey-textured' cookies.
There is a problem with substituting oil for shortening. You will have to adjust all the liquids in the recipe. In most cases I wouldn't suggest it.
Substitute applesauce for oil on a 1 to 1 ratio. So, 3 Tablespoons of applesauce would be used in place of 3 Tablespoons of oil.
Half-cooked applesauce can be refrigerated. It cannot preserve for long, however.
Each vegetable will be different depending on the space it takes up in the cup. A half cup of shredded lettuce will be different in weight than a half cup of peas.
Applesauce squared.
A potato is a vegetable that has a lot of starch in it.
Yes, one half would be equal if the salad was divided into two parts.
For those who wish to reduce the fat content of the finished product, replacing oil with applesauce will cut calories and fat without adversely affecting the texture. If you are substituting applesauce for shortening, you use half the amount of applesauce. So, 1/2 cup shortening is replaced with 1/4 cup applesauce.

Often times, yes, this is a safe substitution. If there is a lot of oil (say 1/2 - 1 cup) it might be better to only substitute half of the oil for applesauce, otherwise it has the potential to interfere with the taste and texture too much.
lbs are pounds, so half a pound would be half a lb
No. 500m is equal to half (.5) a km. It would take 5500 meters to equal 5.5km.
No, that means 5cm if it was half of a cm it would be 0.5cm
