Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Tapioca starch
Directions
Step 1
1. Add 1 cup of granulated sugar to a high-powered blender or food processor. A blender is preferred for a finer texture.
Step 2
2. Add 1 tablespoon of tapioca starch to the blender with the sugar. The tapioca starch helps to prevent clumping and mimics the anti-caking property of cornstarch in traditional confectioners' sugar.
Step 3
3. Secure the lid of the blender tightly to prevent any sugar dust from escaping.
Step 4
4. Blend the mixture on high speed for 20-30 seconds. Stop, give the blender a quick shake, and blend again for another 10-15 seconds until the sugar becomes a fine, powdered consistency.
Step 5
5. Turn off the blender and let the sugar dust settle inside for 1-2 minutes before carefully opening the lid.
Step 6
6. Check the powdered sugar by rubbing a small pinch between your fingers. If it feels gritty, blend for an additional 10-15 seconds.
Step 7
7. Transfer the powdered sugar to an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
Step 8
8. Use this homemade corn-free powdered sugar as a 1:1 substitute for conventional confectioners' sugar in any recipe.
