Be the first to write a review

By , About.com Guide

Have a recipe that calls for shortening? Try this simple substitute instead:

Ingredients:

  • Butter

Preparation:

Replace the shortening in your recipe with an equal amount of butter.

Note: Butter has a lower melting point than shortening, and may change the texture of your recipe slightly – making it more/less crisp, less flaky or less fluffy.
