Purely scientific purposes!) and used some big red seedless grapes and it was soooo good.<br />The brown rice syrup is a low glycemic sweetener. You can use the agave syrup, but be sure to use less than the 1/4 cup--maybe only a Tablespoon or two. It's super sweet. I really liked the taste (a little butterscotchy) and the texture of the brown rice syrup in this pie, but experimenting is always fun. And you can't go wrong with ingredients like these!<br />Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!Julie Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15157550632857523438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4844760454340248781.post-46366501574754031672009-11-25T21:29:21.233-05:002009-11-25T21:29:21.233-05:00Wow, this sounds delicious Julie!

Do you have any favorite kinds of grapes to use for this- maybe just the red seedless or globe grapes?<br /><br />A quick question about brown rice syrup. I've never tried it; is it a low glycemic sweetener? I've noticed that Costco is now carrying organic blue agave syrup, which I know can be used by those with blood sugar issues. Would it be an OK substitute?<br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving to you, Boris, David, Tony and Nonie!Jennifer G. Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05921022924125424519noreply@blogger.com
