Can we substitute sugar with honey, agave, maple syrup (how much)?
Hi Sim!!
According to Ayurveda, Honey becomes toxic when heated. But Agave and Maple Syrup are safe for cooking. You can add 1/4 cup Agave or Maple syrup instead off sugar.
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks. 🙂

Hi Dhwani,
I tried this recipe. It was indeed a tastiest bread. However, i think, i goofed up somewhere in procedure, as the bread didn’t turn spongy for me. i baked it in microwave @conv. mode. Could you please help me to understand where i might have missed? Thanks.
Hi Pooja.
Thanks for trying and sharing your feedback. Frankly, I have never tried baking this in a microwave convection oven. Maybe, Next time you can try with one less banana.
Can we make cupcakes instead of a bread?
Yes, you can. Just reduce the time.
