Tips for baking with stevia
- Replace lost bulk. Because you use half as much stevia as sugar, your batter has less volume. Adding a few tablespoons of yoghurt, apple sauce or mashed banana per cup of sugar replaced helps keep cakes and muffins moist.
- Watch the browning. Erythritol-based sweeteners don't caramelise like sugar, so bakes stay paler. Check them a few minutes before the recipe says.
- Taste as you go. Everyone's sweet tooth is different. Start with the chart, then adjust next time.
- Prefer not to convert? Use Organic Monk Fruit, which swaps 1:1.
