Try this easy homemade brown sugar recipe whether you’ve run out of brown sugar and need to improvise in a pinch or you just want to save money!

A lot of people don’t know that you can make your own Homemade Brown Sugar. This homemade brown sugar recipe is super simple to make and you can make it with ingredients you already have on hand, saving you the money you don’t have to spend running to the grocery store and buying all those other things you think you need while you’re there!

You can make a big batch of homemade brown sugar and use it in oatmeal, topping for coffee cakes, and of course cinnamon rolls. If you would like to store the homemade brown sugar, just put it in a plastic bag or jar and seal. The airtight container is the trick to keeping it from getting hard. If it gets hard just put a piece of bread in with it and it will soften up. The moisture from the bread will transfer to your brown sugar and make it soft again.
