There are lots of great butter substitutes in baking, depending on what you’re making and the vibe you want! 🍰 Here are the best options:

🧈 Top Butter Substitutes:

1. Coconut oil (solid or melted)

   • Good for cookies, cakes, and muffins. Gives a slight coconut flavor unless you use refined coconut oil.

2. Vegetable oil

   • Great for cakes and brownies. Keeps baked goods moist, but you’ll miss the buttery flavor.

3. Applesauce (unsweetened)

   • Perfect for muffins, quick breads, and some cakes. It makes things super moist and reduces fat!

4. Greek yogurt or sour cream

   • Adds richness and moisture, especially good in cakes and loaf breads.

5. Mashed banana

   • Works for muffins and sweet breads (hello banana bread!). Adds sweetness and a little banana flavor.

6. Nut butters (like almond or peanut butter)

   • Best for cookies and bars. Adds richness and a nutty flavor.
