How to Substitute Applesauce for Oil

Simply swap out half of the oil in the recipe with applesauce. For example, if the recipe calls for a cup of oil, add 1/2 cup of oil and 1/2 cup of applesauce.

Substituting applesauce for oil will change the texture of your baked goods, so first replace half of the oil, and see how it turns out. If you test it out and are happy with the results, you can then experiment with replacing more of the oil, a bit at a time.

Editor's note: We recommend using unsweetened applesauce to avoid over-sweetening and adding additional calories to your recipe.

How Much Healthier is Applesauce?

For every 1/2 cup of oil replaced with applesauce, you will save 900 calories and 110 grams of fat. Since these saving are for the entire baked good, divide the calories or grams of fat saved by the number of servings for updated nutritional counts.

By the way, here's the difference between vegetable, canola, olive and coconut oil.

Replacing part, or all, of the oil with applesauce in your favorite baked goods can save you enough calories to stay on track, or earn yourself a second helping!
