What is the ratio of applesauce instead of oil in low fat receipes?

In general, a ratio of 1:1 in a recipe works fine. The substitution will make the finished product a little sweeter and a little softer, but that is fine for most baked goods, especially cakes. Carrot and spice cakes in particular benefit from the switch because their recipes usually call for a substantial amount of oil.
