Sugar Question

I recently discovered Organic Coconut Palm Sugar which is recommended for people with Diabetes. Can I substitute it for the white sugar in this recipe and the one for Golden Carmel Sauce? Are the measurements the same? Thank you! I LOVE carmel and have missed it. Mattie, I am constantly amazed by your website! You are the best!

Owner's reply

Thanks so much Marcia! Although I haven't used it in this recipe, you should be able to use coconut sugar as a one-to-one substitution with regular granulated white sugar. So it should work in this recipe. I've actually been wanting to make caramel with coconut sugar- apparently coconut sugar gives it an awesome flavor! Let me know how it works out if you give it a shot!

Yeasted Vegan Banana Bread

"I am so happy to have found this recipe; I can finally have good banana bread again! I have been trying to make banana bread/muffins using yeast for quite some time now; however, my recipe has always been a fail. The bread rises but falls back down in the pan. I was so excited to see the bread rise and stay that way. Thanks so much!"

"Made this last night. I'm always looking for a good, healthy yet tasty vegan carrot cake. And I should preface this by saying there's nothing on this page claiming to be healthy - so my other vegan friends might like it better. The cake batter is very dense and thanks to the heavy spicing, is tasty, but way too sweet for me. Would like to try it again using 1/2 - 2/3 the various sugars in this and maybe swap out the pineapple for bananas for more fluffiness? The frosting was so heavy with shortening that the mouth feel was just disgusting. And it only barely covered 1/2 the cake at 1/4". I even added another 1/4 cup of sugar, splash more of the flavorings and almond milk, but still nasty. I created a second batch that used..."

Easy Vegan Buttercream Frosting

N/A

"Hello. I made coconut oil based butter and tried to make buttercream with it. It was good til I splashed soy milk for thinner consistency - it went sour. I mixed it longer and nothing happened. Tried to put more sugar but its too sweet and the same - thin consistency and soured. Any suggestion whats wrong there? Thank you! P.s. I suspect it was vinegar and soy milk reaction but butter consists of it. Maybe because of more soy milk?"
