Best Answer

applesauce, pureed pumpkin, pureed Prunes can be substituted. because baking needs to be exact, get some advice on how much to substitute in which recipe.

You can do this, or you also can actually also use pudding mix instead of oil. The cake will turn out dense and moist, substituting the purpose of the oil. Also closely resembling a cake made from scratch. But depending on the pudding type, it may change the flavor, so just be wise in what you use and it can turn out wonderful!

i have heard that you can use apple sauce. but i dont know how much in relation to the oil

When using applesauce as a sub, I use the amount called for plus 1/4 cup. You can also use butter or margarine (melted)

instead of a cup of oil in a cake, you can substitute a cup of applesauce. you can hardly taste any difference, but it is a lot healthier for you.

* You can use a cup of butter instead of the oil too.

For carrot cakes ( I don't know about other cakes), I've used applesauce in the same proportion as needed for vegetable oil, and they came out great.

What can be used as a substitute for butter when making a cake?

== == I have never tried this with butter but it works for substituting for oil You can substitute vegetable oil for butter in a cake, but be aware that some vegetable oils have a strong or savoury flavour that might not be suitable for a cake. Taste the oil first. Also, butter, being a natural animal product, melts at body temperature, giving a luxurious mouth-feel as it melts in your mouth, so this aspect of the pleasant texture of the cake will be lost. Also, butter can be whipped or creamed more easily to incorporate air into the cake and will therefore more easily give a lighter cake than oil.

Butter.A further response:Since margarine was developed as an inexpensive substitute for butter, butter is also a good substitute for margarine.
