Sandy,

There's nothing I know of that you could substitute for the fat in pastry
which will give similar results. Reducing fat in a pastry changes the
texture, if not the taste. That said, however, you can reduce the usual
fat by half, increasing the liquid (milk, water) enough to bring the
dough together, then assemble and bake as usual. A Cornish pasty has a
rich enough filling that you might be too disappointed.
