rice or agave

Jan 11, 2009 11:09

Trying to make Isa's oatmeal raisin cookies, cause I figured I'd have everything.

But she calls for 1/3 rice syrup. I have none.
I have wholesome sweeteners sugar and agave syrup.
How should I go about this?

sweeteners, techniques-baking substitutions

I say go with the agave. rice syrup is less sweet, so you'll have to make up for the lack of viscosity some how. Probably oil(or marg)/water would be fine.

I would be inclined to use maple syrup

molasses is probably the closest thing I can think of to rice syrup but agave would probably work just as well.

rice syrup is more sticky and thick, and less sweet than agave. so i'd add a tbsp of extra starch to hold them together better, and maybe reduce the measurement a few teaspoons?
