Low GI Desserts? Absolutely! After eating good low gi meals, you never need to be missing out on dessert in any low glycemic diet! You can still enjoy many tasty low glycemic diet treats, in fact the possibilities are endless, once you get the idea of how to put one together. If you use a piece of fruit as your starting point, you can bake it, blend it, add toppings or puree it in a sauce. And if you stay with fresh seasonal fruits, your recipes will stay fresh with the seasons.
To get you started, try some of these Healthy Low GI Desserts:
• Fruit salads – try different combinations with fresh, frozen, or even canned varieties
• Homemade gelati made with frozen berries blended with a little natural yoghurt
• Homemade rolled oat biscuits
• Fruit crumble topped with natural muesli and flaked coconut – most fruits work well
• Poached fruit
• Coconut coated baked bananas
• Baked apples with dried fruits and nuts
• Two or three scorched almonds (not the whole box, though!)
• A small piece of dark chocolate (with >70% cocoa)
Things to avoid:
• Cream and icecream
• Full fat sweetened yoghurts
• Desserts made with refined sugar and white flour
• Pastries and cakes
The possibilities of good options are endless – buy a new low gi cookbook – or have fun rummaging through your old ones. You’ll find many low gi recipes, perhaps with just minor modifications, to make excellent low gi desserts!
