    Can I easily just substitute honey for agave nectar inthese recipes? if so, 1:1 ratio?

    kara, I have not had good success in using 1:1 honey for the agave, though I must admit I am not an experienced cook/baker. Agave seems a bit more "liquidy" than honey. I've tried adding a small amount (maybe one teaspoon)of water to the honey to adjust for the switch, and it's seemed to work OK.

    SAS - you mentioned adding a teaspoon of water to honey - to what amount of honey? I'm completely new with all of this, and tend to follow the recipes very closely. I've been reading about the agave nectar, and am just the littlest bit concerned. I'd like to try the recipes with honey, instead of a processed product.
