Hmmm, now I am a bit confused. I looked for this on Google. Some sites say use a 1 to 1 substitute, some say only sub half of the oil, some say oil only (not butter), some say don't do it and use yogurt if anything (at 1 to 2), while still others say to use a fruit puree (one site said pureed proons work well). Very conflicting messages... Thoughts? If I can avoid so much oil and butter, great, but one site said that fats are important in the formation and texture of the product being baked and so substitutes should only be done with special purees designed for the task...
