I now have 2 favorite healthy cookie recipes I can make.  I don’t need insulin when I eat these cookies!

 

Peanut Butter Macroons

 

1 cup natural peanut butter

1/2 C agave nectar

1 egg

1/2 tsp baking soda

dried coconut-just dump in one cup and stir, continue adding more a little at a time until the batter acts like real cookie dough and rolls around the bowl in a large clump, then make semi flat cookie shapes on an ungreased cookie sheet

Bake for about 8 miutes at 350, let cool for 15 min on sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack

make about 14 cookies

 

Coconut carob cookies

melt one package of unsweetened carob chips in a saucepan

add unsweetend dried coconut (about 2 cups) slowly while stirring until the mixture acts like cookie dough and rolls around in a big clump.

place spoon size cookies on wax paper and let harden

once again, no reaction on my bloodsugar!
