Substituting Maple Sugar for Granulated Sugar

 What to do instead of 1 cup of granulated sugar.
Use: 3/4-1 cup of maple syrup
Because: Maple syrup is less sweet than granulated sugar, if you like sweeter foods, use the larger amount of syrup. If you prefer something not as sweet use 3/4 cup.

Decrease: Liquid by 2 to 4 tablespoons per 1 cup syrup used.
Because: Syrup contains more moisture than the solid granulated sugar which the recipe called for. 

Add: 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
Because: Maple syrup has a slight acidity that needs to be neutralised for the batter to rise and form properly. Do not add soda if recipe contains buttermilk, sour milk, or sour cream since these liquids do the same thing. 

Decrease: Oven temperature by 25 degrees. 
Because: the maple syrup will tend to caramelize and burn on the top and edge sooner than a batter using a solid sweetener like sugar.
