Chewy and Soft Diabetic Cookie Recipe

Since our father was diagnosed with diabetes later in his life, our mom challenged herself to make low-sugar dessert recipes that he as well as the rest of the family would still enjoy. So these diabetic cookies made with stevia sugar, bananas, unsweetened apple sauce and shreddded coconuts is a really nice option.

Not only are they tasty without being overly sweet, they are soft and chewy with a cake-like texture.

Stevia’s sweetness is very concentrated, so a little goes a long way! We’ve also used Stevia to make this orange pomegranate jam, this large batch strawberry jam and these canned pears.
