Maple Syrup for Cooking instead of Sugar! Maple syrup is can be used as a sugar substitute for those who strive to use less refined sugar. For substitution, typically one cup of white sugar can be replaced with 2/3 to ¾ cup of maple syrup. To substitute for honey, the ration is the same. So one tablespoon equals one tablespoon. Maple syrup caramelizes at a lower temperature than sugar does, so you may have to adjust the temperature. View more information on New York State Maple Syrup at http://nysmaple.com.
