Bread and butter question

[Guest guest]

I want to make a loaf of bread as a gift for a vegan friend. As I'm

not vegan, I don't have any of the special ingredients. I have an

excellent whole wheat bread machine recipe, except it calls for

butter. Can I leave the butter out? Or substitute conola oil or

criso? The recipe calls for 4 T. butter.

 

I've checked out the vegan bread recipes on the web and they either

call for an ingredient I don't have like gluten or soy milk, or they

sound terrible. I really want to use the ingredients that I have on

hand.

 

Thanks for your help!
