Healthy Honey

Did you know that honey can be healthy? There are lots of benefits to honey, but there are more if it is not pasteurized. When the honey is heated past a certain temperature, it looses some of its beneficial properties. Honey that hasn't been pasteurized still has the enzymes your body needs to digest it. It also contains many minerals and antioxidants.
For these reasons, raw or unpasteurized honey is an excellent replacement for sugar. Here is a link for directions on how to replace the sugar in your recipes with honey.
