I thought canola was unhealthy for some reason. Inflammation?
It’s totally fine. Tik tok has some bs thing going on about canola oil being bad. But it’s perfectly fine. The inflammation thing is unfounded.

I heard something similar so we are back to using veg oil for high heat and olive oil for most other things.

There is an olive oil shortage right now. The prices on olive oil have doubled in the recent weeks. Don't waste the stuff.

Unless you’re planning to bake and ingest charcoal with that dough you’ll be fine.

They make olive oil cakes, OP. EVOO is used in breads all the time too. You're fine.

Bread doesn't get hot enough for the oil for this to be a concern (unless you really burn it, in which case your smoke detector would probably let you know).

We use grapeseed oil, avocado oil, or safflower oil for most of our cooking.
Olive oil has such a strong flavor that I don't like it that much unless it's used intentionally for flavor.

I’ve heard that this is overblown, but I use avocado oil when frying.

Don’t deep fry in olive oil and you’ll be fine. Canola has some of the same heart benefits but has a higher smoke point so we use than for pan frying and sautéing.

If you’re putting it in bread it’s not going to get anywhere near hot enough to be concerned. The internal temperature of a cooked loaf of bread is supposed to be 190-200F.

Has anyone tried avocado oil in baking? Apparently it has the highest smoke point of oils
