I found, and my son made (with changes) one delicious, diabolic, decadent diabetic dessert for his mom today. The basic ingredients:
Filling Ingredients
4 cups rhubarb, chopped or sliced
1 cup fresh strawberries
1 large apple (whatever kind is sweet and in season)
3/4 cup organic apple juice concentrate
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tbsp. tapioca starch (cornstarch will work too)
Topping Ingredients
1/2 cup quick-cook oats
1/2 cup walnuts (or any nuts you would like to use)
1/2 cup quinoa, uncooked
3 dates, seeds removed
1 tsp. olive oil
He used far more apples, strawberries, rhubarb, dates and quinoa than called for.
This recipe has a glycemic load of less than 10 per serving (15 servings per recipe) - quite low given what it contains!
