Here are some tips for using Honey as a healthy substitute for Sugar:
It is easy to substitute healthier honey for sugar in most baking recipes if you take the following steps:
– Use 1/2 – 3/4 cup of honey for each cup of sugar in the recipe.
– Reduce the liquid by 1/4 cup for each cup of sugar replaced.
– Reduce cooking temp by 25 degrees (honey will make your baked good brown more easily).
– If the recipe doesn’t already include baking soda, add 1/4 tsp for each cup of sugar replaced.
NOTE:
Cooking or baking with raw honey does kill the enzymes (poor little guys!), so if raw honey is more expensive for you, buy some supermarket stuff and use it accordingly.
