Sugar Free Recipes

Fruit ‘n’ Nut Candy

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup craisins
  • 1/4 cup dried chopped apricots
  • 1 1/2  cup walnuts
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds

Directions:

In a food processor combine all dried fruit and walnuts. Process until they form a sticky ball. Coat hands with oil and roll mixture into balls the size of large marbles, then coat with sliced almonds. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Options: To mix it up, try adding 100% all natural peanut butter or substituting in your favorite dried fruit like apples, dates, cherries, etc. Throw in some flax seed for extra Omega 3’s or roll the finished candy in coconut for added sweetness.

Sugar-Free Cake

Ingredients:

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 cup frozen 100 % apple juice concentrate, thawed
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground  nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 2 apples – peeled, cored and finely chopped
  • 1 cup raisins (rehydrated)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350o F. Grease and flour one 9 inch square baking pan.
  2. Beat eggs until smooth. Slowly add the oil, applesauce, and juice concentrate beating continuously.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and spices together. Combine with liquid mixture and  mix until smooth.
  4. Meanwhile, in a sauce pan, cover 1 cup raisins with water and bring to a gentle boil. Simmer on  low until the raisins have rehydrated and are plump. Drain all excess liquid from rehydrated raisins and add to cake batter along with the walnuts and chopped apple.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in to the center comes out clean. The center of the cake should be firm to the touch. Let cake cool on a rack before turning out of pan.
