Bob’s Red Mill Coconut Sugar is made from the nectar of the palm blossom from the coconut tree. Due to its low glycemic index, the nutrition of coconut sugar makes it a wholesome alternative sweetener that can be used in many recipes as a one-to-one replacement for regular sugar like white sugar or brown sugar. The mellow caramel flavor of this alternative sweetener is perfect in cookies, cakes and quick breads. For a delicious breakfast, top your oatmeal with a spoonful of coconut sugar.
