Honey Recipes
You can replace other sweeteners with honey in most any recipe. Some say to replace 1 cup of dry sweetener with 2/3 or 3/4 cup of honey depending on the sweetness desired. I actually drop it to 1/2 cup. I oil or wet my measuring cup for easier pouring. Sometimes it may be necessary to decrease baking temperatures by 25 degrees.
