According to various studies, our craving for sweets is the number one cause of obesity. To slow down the absorption of sugar, it is recommended to prepare or bake desserts and sweets that contain dietary fiber.
Phyllis Glazer offers you two dessert recipes with natural sweeteners that will reduce the pangs of conscience. Glazer: gluten-free brownies and a festive fruit tart are two recipes that will help you enjoy a sweet once in a while. The recipes are for brownies with a surprise (GLUTEN-FREE) and a fruit tart with a festive (gluten-free) surprise (FUEL-free, dairy-free and nut-free). For the fruit tart, use a can of black beans, filtered and washed (found in the smaller marketing chains) and 1/2 teaspoon of oil. For the brownies, add 1 cup chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate) and 2/3 cup natural cane sugar or coconut sugar or 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar.
