13 Surprising Uses for Honey (Page 4)

Food

10. Boost Your Energy. Quit turning to coffee for your daily energy boost! Replace your cup of Joe with a cup of tea. Mix in a tablespoon or so of honey.

11. Substitute Honey for Sugar in Baking. For every cup of sugar a recipe calls for, replace it with 3/4 cup of honey. For best results, add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda and reduce another liquid in your recipe by 1/4 cup. Also, reduce the oven temperature by 25 degrees.

12. Make Almond Milk from Scratch. You’ll find a great recipe here.

13. Make Infused Honeys. Why have plain old regular honey when you can have ginger lime honey or hot pepper honey?! For these and more infused honey recipes, click here.

I had a bad accident a few yrs ago (my hand got trapped in machinery), I was told I'd have serious scarring on my hand; but I applied Manuka honey every day when I was changing my dressings. The doctor couldn't get over how well my hand had healed after 3months; and to be quite honest the scars are so faint now you really have to look hard to see them. Honey is amazing!!
