Equal, 1/3 cup of oil = 1/3 cup of butter. 1 stick of butter is 1/2 cup, but the paper around the butter cube should indicate how much 1/3 cup is. Happy eating!How much butter to replace vegetable oil?
I would not substitute butter for vegetable oil equally because oil is 100% fat and butter is about 80% fat and 20% water. I would add a little extra butter. BUT......if you wish to do it equally, 1/3 cup is 2.66 ounces. A tablespoon equals a half ounce. So you will need a doink over 5 tablespoons of butter.
