Hi Mary.
Certainly, the main difference between butter and margarine lies in their ingredients and properties:
Butter: Made from cream and contains about 80-82% milk fat. It adds a richer flavor and a creamier texture to baked goods. Butter also helps provide structure and flavor to the dough.
Margarine: Made from vegetable oils and has a fat content similar to butter. It may contain additives and emulsifiers. While it can mimic the texture of butter, it may affect the flavor and texture of the final product due to its chemical composition.
You can use margarine instead of butter in doughnut dough, but be aware that there may be differences in flavor and texture. Margarine might make the dough a bit lighter and less rich in flavor compared to butter. If you choose to use margarine, ensure it is of good quality for the best possible results.
We hope this information is helpful.
Best regards.
