Snack time!! Today we’re enjoying some homemade chocolate chip cookies, but they aren’t just any old regular cookies. We got to play around in the kitchen with an amazing new product from @livafoods called raw date sugar 🙌🏻🤍

Most of you don’t know, but my dad is actually a diabetic, and we are always on the hunt for things we can make that he can still enjoy with us. It’s hard because when it comes to diabetic, sugar free or low in sugar cookies they usually don’t taste the best, right? I’ve only ever found a few companies ( less than 5, and one is a really good friend of mine 🥰 ) that are actually delicious.

Me and the girls baked up a batch of delicious chocolate chip cookies that we got my dad to try. We substituted each cup of the white sugar in the recipe for 1 and a quarter of organic raw date sugar from @livafoods.

I’m blown away at how these turned out. The flavour of the cookie gets a small hint of caramel and there’s no weird aftertaste. This substituted well into our family chocolate chip cookie recipe! FYI, this product was mixed into the wet ingredients and not the dry.

The raw date sugar itself is gluten free, vegan friendly, non gmo certified, contains fiber and is usda approved 🤩🌱 This stuff is the real deal!

The raw date sugar only has ONE ingredient. Organic date power. That’s it! It’s mind blowing to me when you actually compare how little this has in it versus your typical refined sugars. Read the label of your sugar and see for yourself! This also didn’t give my dad a huge hike in his blood sugar. He can snack on these with a little less worry.

Try this out in your favourite recipes to see if it’s for you. Can be used in not only baking but other items like marinades, ice creams, and smoothies. I’d highly recommend checking this product out if you are interested in sugar alternatives ♥️
