Apple Butter Instead Of Oil Or Applesauce?

Our local paper had a story about substituting apple butter in recipes for more fatty things like oil or shortening. Does anyone out there have any experience with this type of thing? Like what proportions to use (one to one, etc.), or do you still need some oil? I'm not a big fan of applesauce because of the texture, but this sounds interesting, especially in cakes. If anyone can help, let me know, 'cause I'm starting my Christmas goodie baking! thanks to all

I have baked this way before, substituting applesauce or prune puree/baby food prunes in place of the fat (butter or oil). It's been a while, but I think I did cakes, sweet breads, and drop cookies for the most part.

I believe it's one to one substitution, but I'm not totally sure on that.

      Hello, I was very stick,  with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.  Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change?  What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?

      Eating out in general is full of risks, but this article may help:

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
