For people on a diet or diabetics we use apple sauce instead of butter, in the same amounts. This works well whon baking sweet stuff, cakes, cookies, chicken recipies, and meats.

However for preparation of salty foods, pasta, and breads you might want to use oil instead.

From sources linked below:

Substitution: BUTTER 1 cup (2 sticks; 16 Tbsp) = 1 cup margarine OR 7/8 cup vegetable oil, lard or vegetable shortening OR 4/5 cup strained bacon fat OR 3/4 cup strained chicken fat

Brown sugar:
>To use honey in place of sugar, use 7/8 cup for every cup of sugar, and reduce the liquid in the recipe by 3 tablespoons.
>To use maple syrup in place of a cup of sugar in baking, use 3/4 cup, but decrease the total amount of liquid in the recipe by about 3 tablespoons for each cup of syrup you use.


If it is the molasses that you resent, you can simply use white sugar in place of brown. But pure white sugar essentially has no flavor other than sweetness, so if you use it in place of brown sugar, what you're making will have less — and possibly significantly less — flavor. Brown sugar also adds more moisture to a dish than white, so, depending on what you're making, the result may also be drier.

Criso with butter flavor, but you still would have a different taste.

Oils might make the the item fall, because you are substituting a liquid oil for a solid butter.

Sugar will only make the sweeter.

yes, you can use white sugar as a subsitute for brown sugar. Just add a touch extra liquid to total recipe. You did'nt say what you're trying to make. Solid shortening can usually be substituted for butter in most recipes. Oil might work depending on what you're making.

extremely sorry yet no, margarine won't artwork - puff pastry is an extremely fussy little concern. the full thought of that's to have many layers of pastry (like, 100000000 layers) with a great duper teeny weeny skinny layer of butter between each layer - those layers of fat is what makes the "puff". If the fat (butter) is merely too mushy, it is going to mixture INTO the pastry and the consequences of "puff" would be lost. Margarine merely would not have a similar shape as chilly butter does. the stable information is that commercial puff pastry is merely as stable, if no greater effective than domicile made (I say greater effective via fact puff pastry is so freaking fiddley to make that customarily you screw it up, and it could take YEARS of prepare to make it as consistent via fact the belongings you ought to purchase). maximum commercial puff pastry does no longer honestly use butter, it makes use of a few particular changed shortening extremely (on account that's greater much inexpensive of direction), so which you will maximum possibly be waiting to locate a commercial variety that does no longer use butter. wish that helped! stable success!

butter is mainly fat, so substituting sugar for it is a bad idea imo. you may want to think more along the lines of an oil. it really depends upon what you are using it for.

apple sauce? I've heard that used in some cake recipes. I don't know if it is meant to replace the butter though...

Olive oil can substitute for half the called-for butter.
