“Most people don’t think about using olive oil in their sweet or savory baked goods,” Gunn explains. “The flavor of a mild or light olive oil will not be detected and the fruitiness of it will complement the other flavors in baked sweets. When making pumpkin bread, oatmeal cookies, cakes, or pie crust, substitute a mild olive oil for butter and use about 1/4 less than the amount of butter you would normally use.” [From "Pouring on the Olive Oil for Thanksgiving"]
