Fruit Chewy Cookies With No Added Sugar

Features:
    Cuisine:

    These are a slight variation of a lovely cookie from a great diabetic cookbook called "Sweet & Natural: Desserts without sugar, honey, molasses or artificial sweetner" by Janet Warrington. I found this cookbook at a thrift store and have been meaning to try something from it. This is my first try. The original recipe lists carob powder as an optional ingredient. I decided to use it, but had to use cocoa powder as that was what I had. So feel free to leave it off. When you look at these cooled cookies the dates look like chocolate chips and my kids were slightly dissapointed when they realized they were fruit, but the enjoyed these a lot. A nice little fruity cookie which is quite sweet without any added sugar. Also, if you have over-ripe bananas which have not been frozen feel free to use those. I just have a bunch of bananas in my freezer.

    Fruit Chewy Cookies With No Added Sugar,These are a slight variation of a lovely cookie from a great diabetic cookbook called “Sweet & Natural: Desserts without sugar, honey, molasses or artificial sweetner” by Janet Warrington. I found this cookbook at a thrift store and have been meaning to try something from it. This is my first try. The original recipe lists carob powder as an optional ingredient.

A nice little fruity cookie which is quite sweet without any added sugar. Also, if you have over-ripe bananas which have not been frozen feel free to use those. I just have a bunch of bananas in my freezer.,I have made this recipe 3 times now. Each time a little different. This time I didn’t scoop the cookies onto a baking sheet. Instead I poured the entire batter into a greased 9×13 glass baking dish. Baked for 20-25 minutes, removed from oven and let cool. I then proceeded to cut them into squares. Much easier than making the individual cookies. These have become my husbands favorite healthy alternative.
