Suggestions for Sugar Substitutes in Baking

Homemakers can substitute honey or molasses for all or part of the sugar in recipes. Hazel Phipps, extension service specialist, notes molasses and sorghum add flavor but contain moisture and acidity, so use about 10 cups per 1 cup sugar and reduce liquids accordingly. For baked goods use 1/4 teaspoon soda per cup of molasses or sorghum and lower baking temperature. honey needs similar adjustments and 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon soda per cup for cakes or quick breads.
