I'm canning peaches & need a light syrup recipe with little or no sugar or a viable substitute for sugar?

Answer 1

You can use fruit juice or just water if you don't want to use syrup, just make sure it's hot.

Answer 2

I would use honey 1/3 and water 2/3 and cook it until the conistency of the light syrup that you desire. You probably can't use white syrup if it is sugar you are avoiding.Best wishes!

Answer 3

when canning any kind of fruit rule of thumb for the syrup is:
sweet: equal measurement of sugar to water
semi-sweet: one part sugar to 2 parts water
less sweet: one part sugar to 3 parts water
Bring the syrup mixture up to to boil, add the fruit, bring it all back up to the boil, then turn off the heat and spoon or ladle into jars

Answer 4

lite syryp means it has sugar. you could try using plain water and spices instead. the sugar actually helps to preserve the fruit, though, so you should probably keep them in the freezer. Or use juice.

Answer 5

you can can with fruit juice as syrup.

Answer 6
