Baking with Olive Oil Measurement Conversion

Can't wait to try more baking with extra virgin olive oil, especially Lucero's Chocolate Olive Oil. I've done it before when a recipe has called for vegetable oil, but never substituted it for butter. 

In the mean time, here's a handy dandy conversion chart, plus read the original article and get more Lucero olive oil recipes here: How to Bake with Olive Oil

Tip: Try the Emsa Perfect Beaker (large amounts) or OXO Mini Beaker Measuring Set (small amounts) to measure liquid ingredients. It's so much easier to use and more accurate, like a measuring scale for dry ingredients. No more overfilled little spoons!
