To substitute honey for sugar in your recipes, follow these simple guidelines.

Substitute honey for up to half the sugar called for in the recipe. With a
little experimentation, honey can replace all the sugar in certain recipes.

Reduce the liquid in the recipe by 1/4 cup for each cup of honey used.

Add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda for each cup of honey used.

Reduce oven temperature by 25 F to prevent over-browning.

Remember, honey has a higher sweet-ening power than sugar. It will take
less to sweeten your recipe.

For easy measuring and fast clean-up, coat measuring cups and spoons with
vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray before measuring honey.

One 12-ounce jar of honey equals a standard measuring cup.
