My cookie recipe calls for equal parts white & brown sugars. Could I use just this product instead?

I use turbinado sugar in any recipe that calls for granulated sugar, have never used it lieu of brown sugar. Have used brown sugar and turbinado together and it worked very well.

Nope this sugar is not refined, you need to used what the recipe calls for, hope this answers your question

I didn't see anything on the label about how or if to use with recipes (cake, cookie, etc.), but can't see why it wouldn't be just fine. The thing to remember is that it has 85% of the peanut oil removed so it won't provide such oils if that is needed for a recipe. As a Weight Watcher lifetime member, I've kept up on certain recipes. One thing that came out was adding 'daily essential oil' to PB2. That seems contradictory to using PB2 because that's where the bulk of calories reside. Of course there are more healthy oils than peanut oil, so guess that's ok. The label says go to 'bellplantation.com' for recipe ideas and more.

You don't sift brown sugar, you pack it. I have never in my long life of baking had a recipe call for sifting brown sugar. It will sift dry ingredients, technically, brown sugar has too much moisture in it to be called a dry ingredient.

i don't use the mixes. i have a cook book for the dogs so I make my own. I find it less expensive to do it myself. Good luck I love the machine it keeps me from sweating to death trying to bake cookies in this heat.

My mom used this to make cookies but I don't have her recipe. Keep in mind that this does have some baking powder mixed in with the powdered vanilla.

I did not find it as sweet as white sugar, it was more in line with a subtle brown sugar replacement in terms of sweetness. For instance, you probably wouldn't want to put this in iced sweet tea, the flavors do not reflect what the same tea would taste like & the level of sweetness for the same amount of white granulated sugar. Once when making cookies, I thought the dough was not quite sweet enough, I added about a teaspoon of agave & that lent enough sweetness for the cookie recipe I was replicating. I would try a little 'trial & error' with this item for sweetness, make a much smaller batch to try it out & see how the sweetness level compares for you.

We haven't had any issues with single batch cookies so you should be fine. Just don't overmix :)

The manufacturer recommends you use half the amount listed for extract. I have found that using half works well. On a few occasions I have forgotten and have used the full amount, and whatever I was baking still came out great. I love this vanilla in my morning pancake recipe!

Depends on what kind of cookie. Would probably work best for a sugar cookie, anything else might look a little odd.

I just looked this up online and this would be fine to use in any of the recipes I saw. Looks interesting. I may try it myself. :-)

Yes, we have used both pre-mixed flavored sugar and plain sugar with the flavoring added to it. Both work.

yes I use it in cookies all the time. I just put the amount of powder in and then 1/2 that for the water. (1/4C of PB2 and 1/8C water.) just like the directions say.

Yes, you should be able to do that, but make sure you include some xanthan gum. You can go on line and find the ratio of xanthan gum per cup for items from cookies to bread and in-between. It does make a significant difference. Don't panic at the name, Bob's Red Mill has it and you can find it on this site.

You can use stevia in baking. However, stevia has different properties from sugar. If you try making cookies using all stevia and no sugar, the cookies will most likely not brown, and they will be more the consistency of munchkins. I find that stevia works really well in coffee, tea, on cereal, and in oatmeal.

I guess it should work, to me raw sugar seems a bit sweeter than white. just try it and see what happens.

It is so similar to sugar, I would take that chance, but I have never tried it! Have you ever used it with brown sugar? If you have it should work with the Coconut Crystals!! I only bake cookies with it, and use it and Swerve for sugar, because Coconut Crystals has sugar but does not spick a diabetic person, and with the mix of Swerve it's not harmful to them! I've baked with that mixture for years, and works for my husband who was borderline and he does really good on it! And use gluten free flour!

I would assume a high powered blender or processor would do it. I use it for powered sugar without alterations. The sweetness of this product is just right for me. No white sugar ever again. Good Luck.
