Yes, but it will change the taste slightly.
Use the same amount of butter as you would shortening. In bread, a tablespoon of butter can be used instead of a tablespoon of shortening. The same amount of canola oil is even healthier.
yes
yes but you have to use less butter than the normal amount of oil
Doubtful this would work. Much different ingredient. Oil works well, Canola or Olive is the best for your health.
Not really. They have different properties and cook differently. You can sometimes use olive oil to saute something in place of butter, but if the recipe calls for butter, use butter. Sometimes you can substitute vegetable oil or canola oil, but not olive oil.
Canola can substitute 2 sticks of butter by using 16 tbsp of oil. For every 1/4 cup butter, use 4 tablespoons vegetable oil.
You must mean that you don't want to use butter... you may substitute butter for olive oil, vegetable oil or canola oil.
Both are correct, you can say substitute for or substitute with.
You can use butter instead, although you really won't get the same texture as you'd get using Crisco. Oil does not work in Irish Soda Bread. You could try searching for an Irish Soda Bread recipe that doesn't include Crisco.

Butter.A further response:Since margarine was developed as an inexpensive substitute for butter, butter is also a good substitute for margarine. Depending on exactly what recipe you are making, other possible substitutes might be lard or chicken fat (schmaltz), or a neutral tasting vegetable oil such as canola oil. Each type of fat will produce a slightly different baked product.
What are you substituting the oil with? What kind of recipe? You couldn't use butter for the oil in salad dressing. Sometimes it does matter what kind of shortening you use.
