I’ve been struggling since becoming insulin resistant. I was in hospital last week because my blood sugars just wouldn’t stabilise.
My nana loves baking and has always loved baking me my favourite cakes.
She has been doing research and baked me some keto (practically zero carb) desserts.
She made fruit cake
Coconut and mixed nut snowballs
And berry and nut chocolate mousse
She also made cheese scones and she’s working on keto bread. She is simply the best and I’m forever grateful because it is definitely helping me to feel normal
Aww sorry, I know how difficult it can be to stabilize sugars. My sister is type 1 diabetic. Unfortunately she has neuropathy that is awful in her feet now. Are you type 1 or 2? Those treats look awesome! My sister bakes breads or cookies with almond flour so it cuts the carbs down a lot.
My wife has substituted Stevia for sugar (in lesser quantities) while baking cookies and cakes for me for years now. It loses some of the crispness the sugar provides, such as to pound cake, but isn't bad at all.
@RSquared this isn’t choice, I’m not allowed carb (much carb anyway) so trying different options to give me at least some variety of food that’s not just protein and vegetables
