What can I use instead of powdered sugar

Due to the improvement of the quality of life, many families will buy a small household oven and make some snacks and other foods at home. After all, the food you make yourself is green and healthy, and you can add ingredients according to your favorite tastes. You can make it any flavor you want. Powdered sugar is an indispensable substance when making desserts, so what can be used instead of powdered sugar?

Powdered sugar plays a very important role in baking. When we don’t have powdered sugar on hand or feel that online shopping is not cost-effective, we can use homemade powdered sugar instead, which is much cheaper than buying ready-made powdered sugar.

Ingredients: 500 grams of white sugar, 15 grams of corn starch.

Tools: A household food processor.

Method: Put white sugar and corn starch into a food processor and blend in 3 times, each time for about 20 seconds. Pour through a fine sieve and finally put into a glass jar and seal it for storage.

Additional notes:

1. White sugar can be coarse sugar or fine sugar, or it can be replaced with an equal amount of rock sugar, but the rock sugar must be crushed before putting it into the food processor.

2. It is better to use rock sugar to make powdered sugar, because white sugar is a disaccharide, while rock sugar is a monosaccharide, which is easier to be absorbed and utilized by the human body.

3. Corn starch can be replaced with an equal amount of chestnut powder. The amount can be 3% to 10% of the white sugar. Usually it is enough to add about 3%.
