Another post on sugar for all you bakers out there or those reading ingredient list on nutritional labels (You are aren't you?).
Date sugar is a sugar made by grinding dates.
- 1 cup = 480 calories (240 less than granulated sugar)
- Since date sugar is made from ground dates it has all the same nutrition as dates, including potassium and calcium.
- Date sugar is similar in antioxidants as molasses which was listed here a couple days ago.
- Some of the best uses for date sugar are banana bread and bar cookies.
- When substituting for granulated or brown sugar in recipes, use 3/4 cup date sugar for each cup of sugar called for.
