Comments on: Sugar Free? Try a "Fool" for Dessert http://www.homeschooling.net/blog/recipes/sugar-free-try-a-fool-for-dessert/ Mon, 20 May 2013 19:13:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Diane Hopkins http://www.homeschooling.net/blog/recipes/sugar-free-try-a-fool-for-dessert/comment-page-1/#comment-12 Diane Hopkins Tue, 23 Feb 2010 04:28:34 +0000 http://www.homeschooling.net/blog/?p=128#comment-12 I have left in the honey because at 1/2 cup for 6 loaves of bread, that would be just a fraction of honey in each slice. You don't have to put any sweetener in bread at all, though. French bread does not have any. <br /><br />As for the brownies, I have been vigorously trying to learn to bake without sugar or honey or agave or anything else like that. I'd love to learn how to make stevia-sweetened brownies, but so far, not much success! <br /><br />One thing I must tell you, though, is once you are off sugar, you really don't care about brownies. I know it seems bizarre and unbelievable, especially coming from a chocolate/sugar lover as I was, but it is true! You lose your taste for it as your addiction diminishes. Veggies taste really good. Do I sound crazy? Well, I like cauliflower (the way I make it on my blog: http://blog.lovetolearn.net/2010/01/instead-of-macaroni-cheese.html), and I'd just as well have that as a brownies. Honest!
