1cupExtra Virgin Olive Oil
Substitution ratio: 1 cup Avocado Oil = 1 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Effects on Your Baking

Olive oil has a more pronounced flavor compared to the milder, more neutral avocado oil. This substitution will introduce a slightly fruity, peppery, and earthy note to the baked goods, which can be a pleasant addition to savory recipes but may contrast with sweet treats. The flavor complexity of olive oil can enhance the overall taste profile, making it more robust and intense. In sweet applications, this could mean a reduction in the perceived sweetness, as the distinct flavor of olive oil might overshadow delicate sweet notes.
