    Yes, any type of oil would work. It is high in fat but if that is what you are needing then this will do the trick. Very Yummy!!!

    This sounds good but it is high on fat content. You could make this lower on fat if you used spray butter instead of the oil and maybe use the brown sugar splenda. I will try it this way today. Thanks for a great sandwich. - 4/29/10

    I agree. Definitely high in fat but Tina had talked about it on her blog how good it was with canola oil so I just had to try it that way. Check out her blog carrotsncake.com...it is very good. Thanks for your suggesstion I will defintely try to make it less fattening next time.
