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.

Can you use yogurt instead of butter or shortening in cookies?
I have tried this, and it worked fine for me. I have used both nonfat and lowfat plain yogurts in cookie and quick bread recipes. The yogurt seems to keep the baked goods moist, the same as using applesauce would. Sometimes I use both applesauce and yogurt to equal the amount of fat called for and it always comes out just fine.

Can you substitute apple sauce for oil butter or margarine in a recipe?
It's might be better to substitute oils, butter and margarine with applesauce in oil-based baked goods like muffins and breads, or moist cakes. Substitute applesauce one for one with the oil, and it helps to add in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. They say a little oil goes a long way in contributing to a better taste and texture. I've done this a few times with a zucchini bread recipe that calls for 1/2 cup of oil. I use 1/4 cup oil and 1/4 cup applesauce and the bread tastes great.
