Indulging in Gluten Free Diabetic Desserts

Gluten Free Diabetic Desserts: While many people are aware that eating gluten-free can be good for your health and may help you lose weight, they don’t realize how delicious gluten-free eating can be! So even if you aren’t diabetic, there’s no reason why you should deprive yourself of these tasty treats! Here are some of our favorite desserts that are great for people with diabetes or anyone else who wants to cut back on their sugar intake while still enjoying the sweet things in life.

What is the best dessert for diabetics?

Diabetics must watch their sugar intake, but that doesn’t mean that they should give up desserts. The best dessert for diabetics is one with a moderate amount of sugar and high fiber content. A good example is a slice of angel food cake, which contains 10 grams of sugar per serving, 0 grams of fat, and about 4 grams of protein. Another good option is a baked apple with vanilla ice cream; it has about 20 grams of sugar per serving and provides 9 grams of protein per serving.

Is there a gluten-free sugar-free cake mix?

There are many recipes for gluten free sugar free cake mixes, but these tend to be of the muffin or cupcake variety and require eggs. One alternative is to make a sponge cake using the following recipe:

• 1 cup rice flour,
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch,
• 3/4 teaspoon salt,
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional), and
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
• Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder,
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or paste and mix well.

Gluten-Free Cupcakes

Cupcakes are a favorite dessert for many people. They are perfect for birthdays, weddings, and other celebrations. They can be made from scratch or with a box of cake mix and frosting. The only way to make sure they’re gluten-free is to read the ingredients. Some mixes already have gluten-free flour in them, like Betty Crocker’s Red Velvet Cake Mix.

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Lately, I’ve been incorporating more gluten-free items into my diet. One of the first things I noticed was a lack of dessert options. Thankfully, there are plenty of options out there for those with Celiac Disease and other food sensitivities. These desserts are delicious and can satisfy any craving!
These Chocolate Covered Strawberries are one of my favorites because they’re so simple and yummy!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

If you are looking for a great gluten-free dessert recipe, try these chocolate chip cookies. They are delicious! The recipe is simple and quick to make. All you need is five ingredients: eggs, butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and a bag of chocolate chips. Melt the butter on the stovetop then add the sugar and eggs. Stir until it is all mixed then add vanilla extract and salt.

Pancakes

I know, I know. Pancakes for breakfast? Really? Well, hold on to your pants, because this is not your ordinary pancake recipe. These pancakes are gluten-free and diabetic-friendly, so you can indulge guilt-free. The secret ingredient that sets these pancakes apart from the rest is a dash of apple cider vinegar. The vinegar reacts with the baking powder and creates a light and fluffy texture that’s perfect for breakfast!

Rice Pudding

This is a great dessert for people who are on a diet and cannot have sugar. The recipe doesn’t need to be changed, but you can use brown rice as an alternative to white rice. For this recipe, I recommend using milk or almond milk instead of regular milk. You may also want to use cinnamon, vanilla extract, and honey if desired.

Brownies: If you’re following a gluten-free diet, you must read the label before baking any gluten-free food. Some ingredients may not seem like they contain gluten but might be processed in facilities with wheat products which could lead to cross-contamination.

Granola Bars

• Combine the ingredients and bake for 15 minutes.
• Once they are cooled, cut them into bars.
• Store them in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze until ready to enjoy. – Apple Crisp: – Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a saucepan over medium heat combine the butter, brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt; cook stirring occasionally until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in applesauce and vanilla extract. Pour over the oats mixture, stirring well with a spatula (don’t forget the nuts!). Spread evenly in a buttered 9×13 inch pan or dish. Cover with aluminum foil.

Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Bars

These chewy oatmeal raisin bars are a great gluten-free alternative to traditional bars. The dense, chewy texture of these bars is perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth and the low sugar content makes them a great dessert option for diabetics. They can be whipped up with just six ingredients: flourless brownie mix, butter, egg whites, water, honey, and raisins. Start by mixing the eggs, water, butter, and honey until combined.

Pour this mixture over the brownie mix and stir until combined. Fold in your favorite add-ins like chocolate chips or coconut flakes then add raisins if you’d like. Press into an 8×8 inch pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray then bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes or until edges start to turn light golden brown. Allow them to cool completely before slicing them into bars and serving!

Brownies (GF, DF, SF, and EF Version!)

2 cups sugar-free pancake mix (I prefer Kodiak Cakes) 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tbsp. sugar-free vanilla extract 2 eggs 1/4 cup vegetable oil 2 tsp. xanthan gum 1/2 tsp salt 3 squares dark chocolate, chopped (I used Lindt 85%)
Mix the pancake mix and cocoa powder with a whisk. Add vanilla, eggs, oil, and salt to the dry ingredients and whisk until well blended.

No Bake Peanut Butter Fudge Bars

1. In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract.
2. Fold in the unsweetened coconutfd.
3. Press the mixture into an 8×8 dish lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until set.
4. Once chilled, cut into 24 squares and enjoy! For chocolate lovers, you can use dark chocolate instead of unsweetened cocoa powder to make it extra decadent. Coconut Macaroons: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the shredded sweetened coconut on top in an even layer. Bake at 350F for 5 minutes or until light golden brown, stirring halfway through cooking time to avoid burning.

Can I use milk instead of water in a gluten-free cake mix?

It is not recommended to substitute milk for water when using gluten-free cake mix, as many gluten-free products are made with dairy-based ingredients. If you need to use a dairy product, such as milk or butter, you can use these products as long as they do not contain any gluten. You can also make your substitutes by combining oil and water. For example, one cup of oil mixed with two cups of water could be used instead of 1/2 cup of milk mixed with 1/2 cup of water in the recipe.
