Okay you cooking/recipe queens, here's a challenge for you...cookies/muffins that aren't high on the glycaemic index! So pref. no sugar and pref. something higher fibre like oatmeal in them!
I want to bake as it's coming up for the holidays but all the things I would normally bake are out on my new diet!

I'll have ot think on that one, but I can probably come up with something come closer to the holidays... do you care if they aren't overly sweet? if not, applesauce and some sweet fruit instead of sugar, if not, maybe stevia? or is that out?

I don't mind not very sweet - now I'm off sugar, fruit tastes so sweet to me! But I don't use Stevia (too scared having always been intolerant of all sweeteners!).

Oh I can eat dark chocolate too!
Bevvy, what's your recipe?

How about these that I posted a couple of months ago: Very Berry Muffins
You could sub a tablespoon or two of molasses for the sugar (I use a tablespoon of molasses and I cut the white sugar in half to sub for the brown sugar myself), and if you play with it, you could probably up the oatmeal/flour ratio, or sub a GF flour if you wish!
Hope that helps!

I'm saving that recipe and I'm going to start experimenting as soon as the new kitchen is fitted next week (I currently don't have any counters or cupboards so baking is a bit hard! ).
I wonder how little sugar I could get away with? Possibly even less if I used raspberries instead of blueberries????

I've been intolerant of all artificial sweeteners for so long (migraines, excema, asthma, IBS, Fibro....) that I'm scared to even try Stevia.
