Maple syrup boils at 7.1 degrees Fahrenheit above the boiling temperature of water, so a good thermometer can be used to determine when it's syrup and and the density can be measured. Â°Bx Degrees Brix (symbol Â°Bx) is the sugar content of an aqueous solution.
How much maple syrup should you use in place of white sugar? It depends on whether that recipe is for baking or general cooking. In baking, replace 1 cup of white sugar with 3/4 cup of maple syrup and reduce by 3 tablespoons the other liquid content in the recipe for every cup of maple syrup used. Because maple syrup is brown and granulated sugar is white, this replacement will darken your baked goods and cause them to brown quicker.
