Little changes that change your whole diet. Diabetes can be one of those changes.
With changes like that A WHOLE LOT will change in the way I cook.
I made a great cookie yesterday that is legal to eat.
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookie
Prep time 10 minutes( adapted from Diabetesselfmanagement.com)
1/4 C shortening (I cannot give up my butter-I changed it to butter)
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 Large egg
1/2 (give or take) tsp of mexican vanilla
1 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c old fashioned oats
3/4 c brown sugar splenda
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c semi sweet chips(nestle's)
Combine first 4 ingredients. Add the rest. Spoon out on cookie sheet covered in parchment paper. Bake 10-11 minutes- made 2 dozen.
They are very tasty and hit that sweet spot for my tastebuds.
