I love it when I find a good blog that share my bizarre love of food, health, and culture.
Today when I was bumming around looking for low sugar websites I came across this one:
http://becksposhnosh.blogspot.com/2006/01/low-sugar-desserts-and-sweet-treats.html
Pretty sweet! I like the idea of a low sugar recipe contest, so to speak….so, if anybody wants to share a favorite low or no sugar recipe that we can post, please do! It can be dessert, a bread or baked good, or some way that you’ve creatively used low sugar foods to make yummy foods. If you have a picture of it, even better.
One of these days I’ll put all the recipes in a file, but that would require me to have free time before 9;30pm every night 🙂
Ciao,
Rebecca
I used to make these back in my “Body for Life” diet and lifting days. They do have aparatame in them from the diet cocoa and the protein powder but they are sugar and corn syrup free…and if you are truly “off” sugar they will taste pretty good.
1/2 banana
– 1 tbsp. peanut butter
– 1/3 cup oatmeal
– 1 pkg. Swiss Miss No Sugar Added Hot Cocoa
– 1/4 tsp. baking powder (NOT soda)
– 1/2 scoop protein powder
Directions: Mix all ingredients thoroughly and drop by spoonfuls onto baking sheet. Bake at 300 degrees for 10 minutes. Makes about 6 cookies.
Thanks Nichole. I sometimes use NSA hot chocolate too, when I’m in a pinch. I also could see cocoa powder + 1 small packet of stevia working here.
