Everyone knows that consuming sugar has an extremely negative effect on the human body. Sweet cakes and cream pies threaten with numerous negative consequences. Add here a fairly large amount of flour, which is found in baked goods and sweet desserts, and it is not surprising that every season you have to buy new clothes a couple of sizes larger.
Sweets without sugar
Many people think that preparing or ordering a dish in a restaurant that does not contain sugar is quite problematic. But in fact, there are a huge number of recipes for “light” desserts. They can be divided into several groups: cottage cheese baked goods with the addition of dried fruits, etc.
Banana cookies
Banana is considered one of the favorite fruits of those losing weight and people who have chosen a lifestyle such as vegetarianism. Thanks to this fruit, you can quickly satisfy your hunger or just have a snack if there is still a lot of time before lunch. Bananas contain a large amount of vitamins, trace elements and minerals that are beneficial for the human body. They contain a sufficient amount of potassium, which takes an active part in strengthening the heart muscle.
One of the popular dishes made from this type of fruit is banana cookies. The recipe is simple and does not require much time to prepare. This dessert can be consumed by people on a diet, vegetarians and even small children.
Required Products:
- A glass of oatmeal.
- Two bananas.
- One teaspoon of cinnamon.
- Two tablespoons of seedless raisins.
- Crushed nuts.
Bananas are cut into slices and mashed with a fork. Then oatmeal is added to the fruit. They will replace flour in dessert. Stir raisins into the “dough” and add cinnamon. From the resulting mass you will need to form small balls and roll each one in nut chips. Place the cookies on a baking sheet and lightly press down each ball to form a flat cake. Place in the oven. Banana cookies, the recipe for which we have offered you, are prepared for fifteen minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.
Date pie in a slow cooker
Fruits such as dates can be an excellent alternative to granulated sugar. Many popular ones are prepared using them. Instead of flour, you can also use oatmeal in this recipe, just grind it first.
- 350 grams of dates.
- Two oranges.
- 100 grams of butter.
- Two chicken eggs.
- Baking powder.
- 125 grams of flour or oatmeal.
- A pinch of salt.
The first stage is the processing and preparation of the fruit. Dates should be washed thoroughly and given time to dry. Then cut the fruit in half and remove the pit. Squeeze the juice from two oranges into a small saucepan. Then add chopped dates to the juice and put on fire. We are waiting for the mixture to boil. Then add a teaspoon of baking powder. Mix thoroughly. Turn off the fire.
Place softened butter in a bowl, break two chicken eggs and beat. Gradually add oatmeal (or flour). When the dough is thoroughly kneaded, you can add the sweet component of the pie - dates with orange juice. Grease the multicooker bowl with butter or vegetable oil. Pour out the dough. The date cake is prepared in the “Baking” mode for half an hour.
Carrot gingerbread
Gingerbread cookies made from carrots and dried fruits are very tasty and aromatic sugar-free sweets. In addition, the beneficial substances contained in the main ingredients have a beneficial effect on both your figure and overall health. This recipe boasts a small amount of calories and carbohydrates, which are so feared by those losing weight.
- Two large carrots.
- One orange.
- Four tablespoons of bran.

Carrot gingerbreads are prepared within twenty minutes. This is a great option for breakfast when you don’t have time to stand at the stove for a long time in the morning. Place all ingredients in a blender and mix well. From the resulting dough you need to form small balls. We make a hole in the central part and place dried fruits there.
All that remains is to place the gingerbread cookies on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper for baking. Place in an oven preheated to two hundred degrees. Cooking time is fifteen minutes.
Carrot and Banana Cake
Sugar-free sweets can consist of several healthy vegetables and fruits. People who eat sandwiches with fatty smoked sausage for breakfast every day would never think that carrot and banana muffins could be so delicious. But it's worth a try!
- Two large ripe bananas.
- A few juicy carrots.
- 100 grams of vegetable oil.
- A tablespoon of flour.
- Baking powder.
Let's prepare the ingredients: peel the banana and cut it into slices, peel the carrots too and grate them on a fine grater. It is impossible to name the exact amount of carrots in this recipe. As a result, you should have one glass of grated product. Depending on the size of the vegetable, its quantity will vary.
Mix all ingredients in a blender. The result should be a paste to which flour and baking powder are added. Grease a baking dish with vegetable oil, place the resulting mixture there and place in the oven for thirty-five minutes.
Coconut Banana Cookies
Natural sweets are a limitless and very diverse group of products. Cooking dishes from such products is a quick and easy process. For lazy people who like to eat something sweet and filling for breakfast, we can offer a fragrant and amazingly tasty dessert - coconut-banana cookies.
- Three big bananas.
- Two glasses of oatmeal.
- Two tablespoons of vegetable oil.
- 150 grams of coconut flakes.
- One packet of vanilla.
The preparation time for this dessert is about fifteen minutes. Moreover, ten of them are spent baking cookies, and it will take you five minutes to prepare the dough. To do this, place coconut flakes, vanilla, banana slices, oatmeal and a spoonful of vegetable oil in a blender. Mix at high speed. The dough is ready. Pour it into molds and place in a preheated oven for 10 minutes at 170 degrees.
Fruit rainbow
There are also various recipes for sweets without baking and sugar. At the same time, the cooking time is significantly reduced, because the oven does not participate in the cooking. For a snack and a full breakfast, as well as for serving on a holiday table, a dessert called “Fruit Rainbow” is perfect.
- One large melon.
- Bunch of grapes.
- Red nectarine.
- Green apple.
- Orange Orange.
- Strawberry.
- Kiwi.
The role of the plate will be played by half a melon. Before turning the fruit into a bowl, it must be cut in half and the contents removed from one part. In a separate bowl, mix finely chopped orange and apple. We also add grapes and finely chopped nectarines. Fill with honey. Mix well. Carefully place the fruit filling into the melon “plate”. You can decorate the dish with a sprig of mint.
Dried fruit candies
Love candy but want to eat healthy? Then we offer you sugar-free sweets made from dried fruits and nut crumbs. You can take these sweets with you to work or school, or put them in your car so you have something to snack on during a long traffic jam.
- One hundred grams of dried apricots.
- The same amount of prunes and raisins.
- Three hundred grams of dates.
- One hundred and fifty grams of walnuts or almonds.
Peel the dates and cut them into small pieces. Place in a blender: dates, dried apricots, prunes, raisins. Mix until a homogeneous viscous mass is obtained. Using a tablespoon, form balls. Walnuts or almonds should be chopped first. Roll the candies in this nut crumb. Place the dessert in the refrigerator for three hours. Delicious sweets without sugar are ready. Bon appetit!
We are already accustomed to the fact that dessert is a sweet and high-calorie treat. ELLE debunks culinary myths and presents sugar-free dietary desserts. Honey, berries, and fruits are used as sweeteners for dessert dishes.

People suffering from diabetes are forced to give up many of their usual pleasures. The need to follow a strict diet does not allow you to enjoy sweet baked goods.
But by adhering to certain restrictions, diabetics can please themselves with equally delicious baked goods without sugar.
Basic rules for baking
There are some restrictions in preparing flour dishes for patients with diabetes:
What kind of flour can I use?
If you have diabetes mellitus, both type 1 and 2, the consumption of wheat products is prohibited. It contains a lot of fast carbohydrates.
Flour in the arsenal of products for diabetics should have a glycemic index of no more than 50 units.
Products with an index of more than 70 should be completely excluded, as they contribute to an increase in blood sugar. Occasionally you can use whole grain grinding.
Different types of flour can diversify baked goods, changing their taste - amaranth will give the dish a nutty flavor, and coconut will make baked goods especially fluffy.
For diabetes mellitus, you can cook from the following types:
- whole grain – GI (glycemic index) 60 units;
- buckwheat – 45 units;
- coconut – 40 units;
- oatmeal – 40 units;
- linen – 30 units;
- from amaranth – 50 units;
- spelled – 40 units;
- from soy – 45 units.
Prohibited species:
- wheat – 80 units;
- rice – 75 units;
- corn – 75 units;
- from barley – 65 units.
The most suitable option for patients with diabetes is rye. This is one of the lowest calorie types (290 kcal). In addition, rye is rich in vitamins A and B, fiber and microelements (calcium, potassium, copper)
Oatmeal is higher in calories, but is beneficial for diabetics due to its ability to cleanse the body of cholesterol and reduce the concentration of sugar in the blood. The beneficial properties of oatmeal include its positive effect on the digestive process and its content of vitamin B, selenium and magnesium.
Buckwheat has the same calorie content as oatmeal, but surpasses it in the composition of nutrients. So, buckwheat contains a lot of folic and nicotinic acid, iron, manganese and zinc. It also contains a lot of copper and vitamin B.
The use of flaxseed is also justified in a diabetic's diet. This type has a low glycemic index and contains few calories (260 kcal). Eating products made from flaxseed flour helps to lose weight, eliminate cholesterol, and normalize the functioning of the heart and gastrointestinal tract.
Amaranth flour has twice the calcium content of milk and provides the body with the daily requirement of protein. Low calorie content and the ability to lower blood sugar make it a desirable product in the arsenal of patients with diabetes of any type.
Allowed sweeteners
It is generally accepted that all food for diabetics must be unsweetened. This is wrong. Of course, patients are prohibited from consuming sugar, but you can replace it with a sweetener.
Natural plant-based sugar substitutes include licorice and stevia. Stevia makes delicious porridges and drinks, and you can add it to baked goods. It is recognized as the best sweetener for diabetics. Licorice is also used to add sweetness to desserts. Such substitutes will also be useful for healthy people.
Even special sugar substitutes have been created for diabetics:
- Fructose– a highly soluble natural sweetener in water. Almost twice as sweet as sugar.
- Xylitol- Sources include corn and wood chips. This white powder is an excellent substitute for sugar, but can cause digestive upset. Dose per day 15 g.
- Sorbitol– transparent powder made from rowan fruits. Less sweet than sugar, but quite high in calories and the dose per day should not be more than 40 g. May have a laxative effect.
It is better to avoid using artificial sweeteners.
These include:
- Aspartame- much sweeter than sugar and contains few calories, but it can only be consumed after consulting with your doctor. Aspartame should not be included in the diet if you have high blood pressure, sleep problems or suffer from Parkinson's disease.
- Saccharin– an artificial sweetener that loses its properties during heat treatment. Prohibited for liver and kidney problems. Often sold mixed with other sweeteners.
- Cyclamate– more than 20 times sweeter than sugar. Sold mixed with saccharin. Using cyclamate can harm your bladder.
Therefore, it is better to give preference to natural sweeteners such as stevia and fructose.
Delicious recipes
Having decided on the type of flour and sweetener, you can start preparing safe and tasty baked goods. There are many low-calorie recipes that do not take much time and diversify the usual menu of diabetics.
Cupcakes

For safe baking it is good to use:

Memo for diabetics
You need to enjoy baked goods in compliance with certain rules:
- You should not cook a large amount of baked goods at one time. It is better to bake a portioned pie rather than a whole baking sheet.
- You can allow yourself pies and cookies no more than twice a week, and not eat them every day.
- It is better to limit yourself to one piece of pie and treat the rest to family members.
- The concentration of glucose in the blood should be measured before eating baked goods and half an hour later.
Principles of nutrition for type 2 diabetes in the video by Dr. Malysheva:
Any type of diabetes is not a reason to refuse original dishes. You can always choose a baking recipe that won’t do any harm and will look decent even on the holiday table.
But, despite the safety and large selection, you should not get carried away with flour products. Excessive consumption of baked goods can affect your health.
We all have a sweet tooth and gourmet by nature. It’s not easy for us to live without sweets with sugar. But there is nowhere to go - otherwise you won’t be able to maintain your health and good figure. “I wish I could eat something delicious and not harm myself with sugar,” many of us dream. Nutritionists know how to do this. They came up with a lot of tasty and healthy dishes without the “white seducer”. Oatmeal cookies are one of them.
How to make delicious oatmeal cookies without sugar: general principles
The abundance of fiber, almost all the minerals and vitamins necessary for the body are the main advantages of oatmeal. This product is quite high in calories. But these calories are harmless - they do not turn into fat folds. Even more than that, oat fiber speeds up metabolism and improves intestinal function, and its minerals cleanse the blood of excess cholesterol.
Here are some important general notes about making sugar-free oatmeal cookies:
1. To ensure that cookies are only beneficial, when cooking, use some kind of vegetable oil instead of butter.
2. If the recipe mentions eggs, you should not use the yolk - it contains a lot of fat. Take only protein.
3. A coffee grinder or blender is ideal for making oatmeal.
As for the filling, dried fruits, walnuts and fresh fruits are best suited for it. But know when to stop! In large quantities, these products are unsafe for your figure. It is better not to eat more than 2-3 cookies at a time.

To avoid this, use a higher temperature (more than +160 degrees). But be careful - if the temperature is too high (above +190 degrees), the cookies will start to burn. Choose the “golden mean” - +175-180 degrees, and everything will be fine with oatmeal dietary deliciousness.
2. To make cookies, you need to use larger and coarser oatmeal. "Extra" won't do.
3. When making balls, you must not overdo it and make them too large, otherwise the cookies will turn out too viscous. Their optimal size is approximately the size of a walnut.
4. Cookies should be removed from the parchment while they are still warm. If you don’t do this, the deliciousness will stick to him.
5. Hot cookies can be cooled quickly if covered with a towel.
6. It is best to store cookies in a tin can, as they dry quickly.
7. Lovers of crispy, non-hard crumbled cookies should use Hercules flakes.
Why is sugar-free baking popular today? Many people watch their diet. There are many reasons for this. The main ones are:
- desire to control your weight;
- diseases that impose restrictions on the diet;
- maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following the rules of proper nutrition.
However, it is very difficult not to consume unhealthy foods and foods. This is especially true for sweets and baked goods. However, it's not all that bad. They can be replaced. Instead of sweet pies and candies, you can eat baked goods made without the use of sugar.
What is the advantage of consuming such baked goods? Firstly, you don't gain excess weight. Secondly, blood sugar levels do not increase. You will find delicious and simple baking recipes in the article.
How can you replace sugar?
First of all, it is a sweetener. There are a great variety of similar compounds, some are even several times sweeter than sugar itself, so very little is needed for making sweets and baking. Sweeteners are divided into two large groups: natural and synthetic. The former are obtained by processing products. An example is fructose. The latter are the result of a chemical reaction. An example is aspartame.
Sugar is also replaced with a product such as honey. Honey is also a high-calorie food. However, unlike sugar, it has great benefits for the body, since it contains a large number of beneficial compounds.
You don't have to add any sweeteners at all. In this case, the taste will be imparted by the products that are included in the baking recipe.
Charlotte without sugar
Recipes for savory pies should be in every housewife's notebook. We suggest you prepare delicious charlotte without sugar. When preparing this dish, natural honey will be used instead of harmful white sand. Also, those who are watching their figure can replace wheat flour with oatmeal.
For preparation you will need the following ingredients:
- Half a glass of flour, wheat or oatmeal.
- A couple of eggs.
- Half a glass of rolled oats.
- 2 tablespoons of honey.
- Apples of any variety, depending on the size you will need 3 or 5 pieces.
- Half a teaspoon of soda.
Preparation
Homemade sugar-free cakes are prepared as follows:
— We need to prepare the apples. They are washed, dried and peeled from the stalk and core, where the seeds are located. After this, the peeled fruits should be cut into slices; the size of the slices can be any size. Place the prepared apples in a bowl. Honey also goes there. Everything gets mixed up. For better taste and smell, you can add cinnamon and vanilla to the honey-apple mixture.

Basic rules for preparing baked goods
It is permissible to use only one specific type of flour, namely rye. In this case, it will be much better and more correct if it is coarsely ground and turns out to be of the lowest grade. Speaking about the use of butter, it should be noted that it should be replaced with margarine with an insignificant amount of fat. In addition, it is very important to pay attention to the fact that it would be incorrect to knead the dough with eggs. At the same time, it is quite acceptable to place pre-cooked items directly into flour products as a filling. Baking for diabetes will be most beneficial if:
- for the filling of each item, namely pies, rolls, cookies, muffins, select only those fruits, vegetables and berries that are suitable for consumption by diabetics;
- sugar will certainly need to be replaced with some kind of sweetener;
- When talking about a sugar substitute, it would be best to give preference to natural variations, for example, the Stevia sweetener.
It is not recommended to bake a pie or, for example, a large cake; it is better to prepare them in small portions. The algorithm for preparing dough for pies deserves special attention.
How to prepare dough for pies?
In order to ensure the preparation of the ideal dough for pies, it will be necessary to use only one rye flour in the amount of 500 g, as well as yeast (30 g), 400 ml of water, a small amount of salt and two tbsp. l. sunflower oil. All these components are thoroughly mixed together, and about 500 grams are added. flour and knead the dough to the most elastic consistency.
Then the prepared pies can be baked in a preheated oven. When talking about baking for type 2 diabetes and recipes, one cannot help but pay attention to exactly how the cupcakes are prepared.
Cake
In addition to very healthy pies for diabetics, it is always permissible to prepare a delicious and very aromatic cupcake. To do this, you will need to use one chicken egg, low-fat margarine in the amount of 55 grams, rye flour - four tbsp. l. In addition, you will need to use lemon zest, raisins and sweetener. Using the most ordinary mixer, the egg is mixed with margarine, the sweetener is poured in and the zest is added. Only after this, components such as flour and raisins are added to the mixture. The dough is laid out in a pre-prepared form and baked in the oven at a temperature of 200 degrees for 30 minutes.
Pie
I would like to draw your attention to the pie recipe, which can also be used for type 2 diabetes. In order to ensure the preparation of a delicious and extremely healthy pie for each of the diabetics, you will need to follow these steps:
- use rye flour in an amount of 90 grams, two eggs, and a sugar substitute in a ratio of no more than 90 grams;
- the composition should contain 400 g. cottage cheese and a small amount of crushed nuts;
- each of the components is thoroughly mixed, and the dough is laid out on a baking sheet;
- The future pie is decorated with fruits on top, for example, unsweetened apples and berries;
- It is highly recommended to bake it in the oven at temperatures from 180 to 200 degrees.
Of course, it would be wrong to eat such a pie every day. Experts point out that in case of type 2 diabetes mellitus, this can be done no more than once every seven to ten days.
The algorithm for preparing a fruit roll, which can also be consumed by a diabetic, deserves no less attention.
Fruit roll
In order to prepare a fruit roll, you will need to use rye flour in the amount of three glasses. In addition, the list of ingredients includes 200 ml of kefir, 200 g. margarine, a small amount of salt, half a tsp. soda and one tbsp. l. vinegar. The already prepared dough is kneaded, wrapped in cling film and placed in the refrigerator for 60 minutes. While the dough is in the refrigerator, prepare the filling. Speaking of this, it is strongly recommended to pay attention to the fact that no more than five to six sour apples and a similar amount of plums are crushed using a food processor.
If desired, use lemon juice and cinnamon, sugar substitute sucrasite. After this, the dough is rolled out into the thinnest possible layer, the fruit-based filling is laid out and only then rolled into a roll. It will need to be baked for 50 minutes at temperatures from 170 to 180 degrees. When talking about baking without sugar, of course, one cannot fail to mention the process of making cookies.
Cookie
To make oatmeal cookies, it is highly recommended to use two cups of oatmeal and one cup of rye flour.
Besides this, the list of ingredients contains two tsp. baking powder, one egg, 100 gr. margarine. We should not forget about the need to use sweetener, nuts, raisins and milk (or water) in the amount of two tablespoons. l.
All presented components are thoroughly mixed, and the prepared dough is divided into proportional parts to give them a cookie shape, and then placed directly on a baking sheet. It is highly recommended to bake cookies at a temperature of 180 degrees until completely cooked.
Tiramisu
It will also be quite possible to prepare a truly exquisite delicacy for a diabetic, called Tiramisu, and do it at home. It is acceptable to use any type of unsweetened dry biscuit as a crust base. Then it is coated with the filling, which is prepared in advance from a mixture of Mascarpone cheese (Philadelphia is acceptable). Cream, soft cottage cheese with minimal fat content and fructose are also added. You can add ingredients such as amaretto and vanillin to taste. The cookies layered in this way are put into the refrigerator overnight.
Thus, not only the first, but also the second type of diabetes allows for home baking. However, in the latter case, sugar should in no case be present in the composition - various sweeteners are used together with it. Despite the comparative benefits of such baked goods, one should not get carried away with their consumption. It is strongly recommended that you first consult with a diabetologist regarding the quantity and other details of the use of baked goods.
