You are right, they seem very similar but looking at the pic I can
see sweet maple darker even though honey bear is my fav (how sweet is the name!).
Not exact matches
substituted
maple syrup for the bourbon (and used the lesser amt of sugar so that it wouldn't be too
sweet) and threw in some chopped walnuts... we'll
see how it turns out!
It was my parents» pantry, you
see, that enabled me to make my magical three ingredient
maple almond cake (using pricey real
maple syrup and almond meal), and their big stand mixer that allowed me to make today's recipe — my light - and - crispity - crunchety,
sweet - yet - aromatic, can't - stop - at - one Mini Chai Meringues.
Taste test to
see if you prefer it a little
sweeter and add
maple syrup or more spices, as needed.
I would like to
see a comparison of different sugars - brown vs white (for examaple) and then also a nutritional comparison of sugar substitues or alternatives such as
maple syrup, agave, stevia, honey,
sweet and low, etc..
As you can
see from the ingredients list, the natural sweetness from dates and
maple syrup are plenty to give this that satisfying
sweet edge needed to be a real cake.
Malt extract is naturally
sweet, economical, delightfully treacly, and packed with vitamins and minerals (you

maple syrup, or agave.
1.5 cups almond milk or water (
see note) 1/2 — 1 cup mashed
sweet potato (
see notes) 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ginger 1/4 teaspoon clove 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg pinch of salt 1/2 tsp vanilla (optional) sweetener, to taste (
maple, sugar, etc., — probably a few tablespoons)
So I just made these and as well they are really bitter and really bland even after adding in 1/4 cup of
maple syrup... I
see it's either love or hate... and while i think it's a good recipe it doesn't have that decadent
sweet tooth fix... they are not at all
sweet or rich... but ive noticed this about other recipes as well to the people that complained and need something rich and
sweet I'd suggest sticking with raw vegan brownies over cooked paleo brownies the recipe itself isn't bad it's just not suited for all taste buds... however I learned about date paste from here and best thing ever!
I loved
seeing baked
sweets and treats in my friend, Kristen's, home tour, so I couldn't resist adding some
maple leaf cookies (Trader Joe's) and fresh apple pie (moi).
