Using Organic Cane Sugar, Cane Sugar, or Honey Vs. Pure Maple Syrup

If you wish to use organic sugar instead of maple syrup, be sure to add the sugar to the wet ingredients and whisk for some time to break down the sugar. If using granulated sugar, you won’t have to stir as long, but you still need to break down the sugar.

While honey is not vegan, you can also use honey instead of maple syrup. However, the honey imparts a different flavor.
