Title: FRUCTOSE SUBSTITUTE FOR SUGAR
Categories: Diabetic
Yield: 1 servings

SUGAR TO FRUCTOSE EQUIVALENT
1/4 c Sugar use 2 1/2 T fructose
FRUCTOSE
1/3 c “ ” 3 1/2 T “
1/2 ” “ 5 T ”
2/3 c “ ” 7 T “
3/4 c ” “ 1/2 c
1 c ” “ 2/3c ”

Substitute fructose in recipes calling for sugar.
Since it is a natural sweetener there should be
appreciable change in blood sugar levels.
Fructose does not break down in cooking like some
artificial sweeteners.
General rule of thumb is to use 1/3 less fructose
thatn the amount of sugar called for. It can be used
in all diets,but diabetics should check with their
doctors if there’s any doubt about using it.
