Guest guest Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Ingredients that typically make up the bulk of the unwanted carbohydrates in a recipe like cookies are flour, sugar (all forms), and anything else like, apple sauce, oats, and probably things like vanilla. Fats, like butter, margarine, and oil don't account for many carbohydrates. Dave " ...In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Becky, Total carbs are more important than just the amount of sugar. There might be a small amount of sugar in something, but the amount of flour, applesauce, honey etc. adds up to a lot more carbs. _____ From: blind-diabetics [mailto:blind-diabetics ] On Behalf Of Becky McCullough Sent: Tuesday, September 06, 2011 6:43 AM To: blind-diabetics Subject: Re: RE: No sugar Peanut butter cookies Each serving is 3 grahams of sugar.
