Substitution Chart Olive Oil for Butter

When recipes call for cooking oils or fats, try olive oil instead.

It's easy — where you would usually use cooking oils such as vegetable

or canola oil, or fats such as butter or margarine, just substitute

olive oil. It's better for you — and it tastes terrific, too.

As a rule of thumb, substitute an equal amount of olive oil for other

cooking oils and three quarters the amount for butter or margarine.

For exact guidelines, use the chart below.

Butter/Margarine = Olive Oil

1 teaspoon = 3/4 teaspoon

1 tablespoon = 2 1/4 teaspoons

2 tablespoons = 1 1/2 tablespoons

1/4 cup = 3 tablespoons

1/3 cup = 1/4 cup

1/2 cup = 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons

2/3 cup = 1/2 cup

3/4 cup = 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon

1 cup = 3/4 cup
