MOLASSES SUBSTITUTE

I didn't have molasses for a bread recipe and this worked great. My recipe called for milk so I didn't add the hot water in this recipe. It was easy because I just added the sugar and cream of tartar at the point the recipe called for molasses. I rarely have molasses, and now I wonder why I would ever need to buy that sticky stuff that is so difficult to get out of the jar anyway. Serving size is estimated.

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and cream of tartar with hot water. If you are making a recipe that calls for a liquid, omit the hot water and just add the sugar and molasses.
  • If there are other spices in the recipe, increase them just a bit to compensate for the loss of molasses flavor.

MOLASSES SUBSTITUTE

This is an emergency substitute for molasses or pancake syrup. Keep in mind that it is a substitute and that the flavor will be much milder than the real thing! But this is the closest substitute you will find. Hope this helps!

Steps:

  • 1. Put sugar and water into a sauce pan over medium-high heat. Cook stirring constantly until the sugar is dissolved and a thick syrup is formed. Cool and put into a jar.
  • 2. *** This is a substitute... not the real thing! Brown sugar is made by adding molasses to it... so this syrup will have a very mild molasses flavor, but using this substitute could alter the flavor of the recipe (less molasses flavor).

1 1/2 c dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 c water

  • Honey. Generally speaking, honey is very sweet, floral in flavor, and golden in color. That said, there are countless types of honey, so you can customize your pick to get closer to molasses.
  • Sorghum. Sorghum is sometimes known as sorghum molasses, which tells you how similar these syrups are. It comes by way of the cereal grain known as—can you guess it?—
  • Maple Syrup. Maple syrup has a malty-caramelly flavor that, like honey, comes in various shades. When substituting molasses, use the darkest maple syrup you can find.
  • Dark Corn Syrup. Like molasses, dark corn syrup is a liquid sweetener with a sultry color. Unlike molasses, it has a less complex flavor and more neutral sweetness.
  • Golden Syrup. This ingredient, which also goes by light treacle, is especially well loved in England. It’s made by evaporating sugarcane juice until it becomes thick like corn syrup, yielding a golden color and toasty flavor.
  • Brown Sugar. Brown sugar is sugar that contains molasses. Often, this means sugar is processed to the point of granulated, then the separated molasses is added back to yield light or brown sugar (ironic, right?).
  • Simple Syrup. Or, more specifically, rich simple syrup, aka a 3:1 mixture of granulated sugar to water. This means that if your recipe calls for a cup of molasses, dissolve 3/4 cups of granulated sugar into 1/4 cup water and sub in.
  • Black Treacle. Sometimes seen as the U.K. 's counterpart to American molasses, black treacle has a very similar color and flavor—but it's somehow darker and more bitter, with a slightly burnt vibe (in a pleasant way!).
  • A DIY Mix. Substitutes are a guessing game every time, so you might as well have fun with it. Instead of using one ingredient in place of molasses, consider mixing and matching to get what you’re looking for.
