by Kathy Kochan
 

Sweeten your life with this ultimate guide to diabetes-friendly baking

As anyone with diabetes knows all too well, it’s not easy to find sweets that won’t wreck your blood sugar! And it’s harder still to dodge the artificial sweeteners that appear in so many recipes and products.

The Diabetic Goodie Cookbook comes to the rescue, with more than 190 recipes for blood sugar–friendly baked goods—magically assembled with fiber-filled whole grains, little to no added salt or sugar, and no artificial sweeteners in sight. And these goodies are heart-healthy, too: They reduce your risk of high cholesterol without sacrificing taste.

  • Crave-worthy cookies: Peanut Butter Cookies, Devilish Chocolate Bars
  • Classic cakes: Raspberry Angel Food Cake, Chocolate Cloud Cake
  • Perfect pies and tarts: Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie, Italian Plum Tart
  • Plus carb-controlled cobblers, scones, muffins, puddings, breads, and more!

Each recipe calls for basic pantry staples and has easy-to-follow instructions to make planning ahead—and baking—simple as can be. With nutrition information and guidance on carb counting, food labels, and snacking, The Diabetic Goodie Cookbook helps you enjoy a sweet treat every single day.
