Corn Syrup Substitute image

Just in time for the Holiday season of goodie baking! My son has a food allergy to High Fructose Corn Syrup. We try to eliminate it from our diets entirely, because it's just not good for us.

THIS PIC IS NOT MY OWN
(I'LL UPDATE WHEN I MAKE THE NEXT BATCH.)
2 c white sugar, sucanat or organic sugar
3/4 c water
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 dash(es) salt

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all the ingredients in a large heavy weight saucepan.

  • 3. Cool the syrup and store in a glass jar (clean LABELED mason jar) with a lid at ROOM TEMPERATURE. This should keep for a couple months.
