Maple Syrup
You can substitute maple syrup for sugar in any recipe by using 1 1/2 cups of syrup to 1 cup of sugar plus 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda. When you do this, you will need to make sure you cut any liquid in your recipe down by half of its amount.
I am going to share a recipe that I am in the process of creating. This recipe will be designed to be eaten at breakfast like you would a Nutrigrain Bar, but instead a lot healthier.
Although this photo came from Photobucket, I have two bottles of the exact same kind in my kitchen. So to save a little time I decided to use this picture.

Applesauce-Maple Breakfast Bread
I created this recipe because I wanted something different in the mornings besides a Nutrigrain bar. I wanted it to be somewhat healthy and good. So I put together. I cooked this recipe today and sampled a piece with a little whipped cream cheese and it taste great.

- 1 cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Pastry Flour
- 4 Teaspoons of No-Sodium Baking Powder
- 1/2 Teaspoon of Sea Salt
- 1 Teaspoon of Cinnamon
- 1/2 Teaspoon of Nutmeg
- 2 Egg Whites
- 1/4 cup of Milled Flax Seed
- 2/3 cup of Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 cup of Unsweetened Applesauce
Instructions
Mix all of the ingredients together with a whisk or a hand mixer. Make sure everything blended together really good. Line the bottom of your pan with parchment paper and spray the sides with a non-stick cooking spray.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
Let it cool in pan for about minutes, turn onto a cool rack and peel the parchment paper off. Enjoy (smiles)

- Mmmmm! Maple syrup... it's one of those rare sweets that I can "eat" without being disgusted, perhaps because it contains less sugar than others?

- I am always eye-spying the real maple syrup in the store because what we normally buy that is labeled as syrup is simply sugar and maple flavoring...I so remember the taste of the real deal when we lived in Maine. Nom nom recipe shares as usual.

- I don't believe I have ever tasted pure maple syrup. Just never had the occasion I guess. Your maple syrup bread looks and sounds really good. Maybe it is time I got adventurous. Love the look of your lens too.
