Need Conversion of Honey to Splenda

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Guest guest

Maybe someone here knows the conversion between honey

and Splenda.

 

I have a recipe that calls for 2 tbsp honey and I want

to use Splenda instead. I can't have honey or sugar.

 

I know that the Splenda website says that sugar

substitutes like Splenda do not help the bread rise

like sugar does but I have had no problem with this.

My breads ALWAYS rise. Even with Splenda.

 

So, I need this conversion. I am making my favorite

whole wheat loaf tomorrow and need to convert the

honey. Any help would be appreciated.

2 tbs.

 

the rule is 1:1 sugar=honey up to 3/4 cup

 

you won't need this but here's the conversion for larger quantities -- when

baking

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup sugar

3/4 cup honey

adjust liquid

baking soda

 

Baked goods made with honey have a rich, moist quality and do not get stale

quickly. To substitute honey for sugar in a favorite recipe, remember these

changes:

 

*Use about 3/4 cup honey in place of every cup of sugar.

 

*Reduce the liquid in the recipe by 1/4 cup for every 3/4 of honey you use. If

there is no liquid to reduce, add 2 tablespoons of flour for each cup of honey

used in the recipe.

 

*Add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda for every cup of honey.

 

*Lower the oven temperature by about 25 degrees to prevent excessive browning in

a honey-rich recipe.

 

* To measure honey, lightly spray a measuring cup with oil before adding honey,

and the honey will slip out easily.

 

* As a rule of thumb, remember that one 12-ounce jar of honey equals one cup.

 

*Honey is 70 to 80 percent sugar; the rest is water, minerals, and traces of

protein and other substances.

 

CAUTION * Don’t feed honey to a baby under a year old. Honey may contain spores

of a bacteria that causes infant botulism; adults and older children are not

affected.
