Substitution ratio: 1 cup Vegetable Oil = 1 cup Applesauce
Effects on Your Baking
Applesauce brings a subtle sweetness and a hint of apple flavor to baked goods, which is absent when using vegetable oil. The oil has a neutral flavor and will not contribute any additional taste, allowing other flavors in the recipe to stand out more. The acidity and complexity that applesauce can add will be missing, resulting in a simpler and less fruity flavor profile.
