Hello - Ive recently went on a Gluten free diet so Im trying to convert a lot of the recipes Ive found to IBS safe recipes also. I want to make some donuts and breads and was wondering what to us for the following:

For some donuts the recipe calls for 1/2 c. oil - is there anything I can do to change this, can I use applesauce instead? Use half oil, half applesauce.

Another recipe for donuts calls for 1 tbsp. shortening - are there any subs for this?

Also what about 6 TBSP. of oil? Ah, what do you mean by this? What recipe calls for this much?

So mainly I guess Im trying to figure out how to sub out oil with applesauce in any recipe....any suggestions?
These have been GF tested using the Bob's All purpose GF baking mix, and I can tell you they are fantastic. They're baked of course. I've used both oil and coconut oil (which is semi-solid) and either works fine since it's such a tiny amount. I made the Spice and Chocolate ones..even glazed the chocolate ones..yum. Hope you have a donut pan or two. Kandee
