If an Irish soda bread recipe is asking for Crisco can you use oil or butter instead?
[Edit]

Answer

You can use butter instead. Don't use the oil.

Answer

You really won't get the same texture from substituting butter for Crisco. And oil - don't even try it! You'd actually be better off searching for an Irish Soda Bread recipe that doesn't include Crisco.
