Question 1

1. Can I use honey instead of maple syrup?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can substitute honey for maple syrup, though the flavor will be slightly different. Honey is sweeter and less robust than maple, so reduce the amount slightly to avoid overly sweet bars.

Lining the pan with parchment paper is key for easy removal. Leave some overhang on the sides, so you can lift the bars out once cooled.
