They would not be the same if baked. Frying with butter will burn the butter, I only fry with canola oil. I use vegetable shortening when making pie crust.

Sorry to hijack your post Goodluna. But yes btiny36, you can use lard, I would just use less. Lard is from an animal, shortning is from vegetables.

Trolleystation, yes, these may be baked at 350 degrees ,just turn so that both sides are browned.

DH said they were alright but I guess I have to practice again
