What could u substitue for vegetable oil...?

In making a cake. All of ours is gone and we aren't exactly the ace of cakes. =) please and thank youWhat could u substitue for vegetable oil...?
Any kind of neutral oil you have will work.


Canola, vegetable, corn, peanut, sunflower, safflower, even the big jugs of processed olive oil, since it doesn't have any flavor either.





What won't work is the more expensive, flavorful oils, like extra virgin olive, or any of the other nut oils like macadamia and such. The flavor just won't work for you.





I've heard of using applesauce, but I've never done it myself, so I can't testify for it or against it. You could give it a shot, though.





I hope this helps. If you don't have any of these on hand, then just take the few minutes to run to the store real quick.What could u substitue for vegetable oil...?
I know butter would work but not sure how much you would need. i would melt it and put in same volume as called for oil. they are both fats, i think butter would be better any ways.
for the best and most moist cake ever, use mayonnaise- no you won't taste the mayo..





if it asks for 1/2 cup of oil, use 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp
You can substitute applesauce for oil in baking. Cup for cup. :) Hope this helps.
