Depending on the recipe, you can replace some but not all of the shortening (whether vegetable or non vegetable) with apple sauce. (Don't substitute in pastry, goods which rely on their high fat content (Victoria sponges etc...), or goods which need to have a long shelf life). In most other recipes you can substitute about 1/3 of the shortening for applesauce, however because apple sauce has a higher liquid content than shortening, you may need to reduce the amount of liquid used elsewhere in the recipe. It's probably easier in the long run if you use recipes that are actually designed for use with apple sauce.
Yes, in place of oil for baking; however, it will change the texture when replaced in large quantities. I use applesauce in place of oil for buttermilk pancakes and waffles all the time, and everyone likes it better. I have a cake that requires an entire cup of oil, and when I replaced it with applesauce, the cake was drier. I also did not care for the texture.
Not with good results. Vegetable oil adds fat, applesauce is basically sugars and water.
Yes you can. I never use oil in any cake that I make. You can also use regular applesauce. You can't tell the difference.
You can substitute it in for vegetables in the process of making brownies.
