Powdered Sugar Substitute | How to Make Powdered Sugar
You can still make things like buttercream frosting without powdered cane sugar, just make this homemade unrefined powdered sugar!
Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup low-carb sweetener
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional - see alternatives above)
Instructions
- Place the sweetener and either cornstarch or arrowroot into your blender or food processor. (I highly recommend the Vitamix!).
- Blend on high continuously until the mixture is of uniform powdered consistency. In a high-powered blender like the Vitamix this will take only about 30 seconds.
- Keep the lid on the blender until the powder settles (or you might have powdered-sugar coated cabinets, depending on how much of a powdered-sugar cloud gets kicked up by your blender!)
- Store in a cool, dry place.
Notes
- Arrowroot: You can substitute organic arrowroot or tapioca starch for cornstarch. If you are on a keto diet or the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan, you can omit.
- Starch Ingredient Information: The cornstarch / other starch portion of the recipe helps the powdered sugar not to cake. It's not necessary but preferable.
