Is there a recipe for whole wheat baking mix (similar to Bisquick) that uses vegetable oil and not shortening?We Answered:
For muffins, pancakes, and quick breads oil would usually be used anyway, so it should work fine. Shortening would be better for things like biscuits and pie crusts that are flaky.Judith Said:
Why do some recipes substitute applesauce for vegetable oil?We Answered:
Applesauce is used in place of vegetable oil in recipes to reduce the fat and calories because it keeps the baked product moist. In baking it's not quite the same texture, things are a little chewier without the added fat, but usually it's still very good.
