^^^Is that supposed to be like butter? I find vegan butter substititutes to just be toxic garbage and feel like it. Better off using real butter. This seems to be good advice on how to cook with it.

But I bake with applesauce instead of butter when vegan baking.

Applesauce: Use for sweet baking only. Use the same amount you would for butter. Especially yummy in brownies! For muffins, etc., replace up to 3/4 of the butter with applesauce, using vegan butter for the rest.

I use coconut oil as cooking grease. It feels light and the fatty acid chain doens't change with the heat like olive oil, canola, etc does. Cooconut oil is the only oil that doesn't turn carcinegenic when heated. Spelling mistakes, i know. on phone and don't care.
