Best Answer

Oil and butter are equivalent fats; if the recipe calls for one tablespoon of oil, use one tablespoon of butter. Please note. this is not true for margarine or spread, a tablespoon of one of these does not contain a tablespoon of fat but fat and many other ingredients.

Same amounts, the margarine will give the finished product a slightly heavier texture, but in most things it will be alright. Melted and cooled in most cases.
