Have you ever baked with Madhava Agave Nectar?

Is it the same as honey and does it work?


Thanks

Have you ever baked with Madhava Agave Nectar?
In recipes, use about 1/3 cup of Agave Nectar for every 1 cup of sugar. For most recipes this rule works well.


When substituting this sweetener in recipes, reduce your liquid slightly, sometimes as much as 1/3 less. Reduce your oven temperature by 25 degrees.


As a food exchange, a one-teaspoon serving of agave nectar equals a “free food”. Two servings or two teaspoons equals ½ carbohydrate exchange.


“Raw” agave nectar has never been cooked or exposed to temperatures over 115 degrees F.

Reply:No, its not the same as honey. It is thiner, more like a syrup, and has a less strong taste. I love it and use it in everything from baked goods to tea. Its much healthier than sugar, and I love the flavor.
