I was making a batch of chocolate chip cookies and trying to convert the recipe to be more healthy. I already substituted whole wheat flour for the white flour, but was trying to figure out what to do about the brown sugar. I substituted some organic cane sugar for the granulated sugar, but wasn’t sure what to do with the brown sugar. I did a search on the internet and came up with a recipe to make your own brown sugar! Here is the recipe:

HOMEMADE BROWN SUGAR

To make homemade brown sugar, mix the following together:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar (I used the organic cane sugar)
  • 1-2 Tablespoons molasses (adjust this to your taste)

It is that easy…and it works!

You can either mix this ahead of time and store it in a container, or just dump the sugar and molasses into the recipe. That is what I did with the cookies I was making and they turned out great!

    I always cut the sugar in choc chip recipe to just the brown sugar and I don't pack it in either. Pastry flour or rice flour works nicely but u may want to gradually do this as it DOES taste/feel/look different. I have tried reducing the butter, but u can't much do 2 it and have them be right, at least to me. The little amt I can reduce it isn't worth it to mess with IMO. Cookies are a treat! like cake; I don't sweat the healthiness so much...they're a rarity. Muffins and granola/brkfst kind of bars and quick breads---now those u want not too sweet....muffins dont need any fat either if u eat them that day or meal....really...try it a la Sue Gregg. And/or applesauce or other mashed fruits helps with the reduced fat too.

Cantaloupe Smoothie

Last summer one of our local grocery stores carried some locally grown cantaloupe and it was SO good!  We kept going back and getting more, we just couldn’t get enough.  We were sad thinking that the season was going to end and we wouldn’t have any more fresh cantaloupe to eat.  So…we decided to buy […]
