Use Granular Maple Sugar instead of Maple Syrup in recipes

Maple Syrup is a great sweetener. It has uses which go far beyond the traditional “Pancakes & Maple Syrup”. Maple Syrup can be used as the primary sweetener in all manor of recipes, from baking to vegetables, to meat. But the problem with this, for bakers in particular, is that you have to be careful about adding extra liquid to a recipe because it changes the entire composition and structure. So what’s a good solution if you want to add a deep, dark sweetener like maple syrup? Pick up a bag of Granular Maple Sugar!

Granular Maple Sugar Uses

Granular Maple Sugar can be used in recipes in the same way as cane sugar is used. It can be used to sweeten drinks, top oatmeal or incorporated into a flavorful rub for meats. When using Granulated Maple Sugar in baking, it acts just like regular granulated sugar and can be creamed with butter for cookies and cakes. It is sweeter than regular sugar, so when using it in a recipe that calls for regular sugar, you will want to reduce the amount of Granulated Maple Sugar slightly so that your finished product isn’t too sweet. You can reduce it by as much as half, but since you want the maple flavor to remain pronounced, it can be a good idea to use slightly more than half and adjust as you go.

Here is a few of my favorite uses for Granular Maple Sugar

Yogurt: Top Vanilla Yogurt with a sprinkling of Granular Maple Sugar for a delicious maple crunch taste.

Cinnamon Sugar: Mix Maple Sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle it on pretzels, toast, muffins, or anywhere else where you use cinnamon sugar.

Apple Deserts: The crunchy maple sweetness of Granular Maple Sugar goes great with an Apple Desert.Use in Apple Pie, Apple Crisp, or Apple Dumplings.
