Trader Joes High Fiber O's Agave Snacks Recipe

I just made these, my husband is a type 1 diabetic but he can eat foods with agave syrup in moderation so I'm forever coming up with recipes using this wonderful natural sweetener. I love these because they're soft, custardy on the bottom and crunchy on the top.

Eat these for breakfast or a pick-me-up snack, they're high in fiber, protein and low on the glycemic index and they're REALLY DELICIOUS!

INGREDIENTS:

5 cups Trader Joes High Fiber O's cereal

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/3 cup Trader Joes agave syrup

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 cup milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 12 cup muffin pan with non-stick spray.

In a large bowl add oil, eggs, vanilla, agave syrup, salt and milk. Mix together with fork then add 5 cups Trader Joes High Fiber O's cereal. Blend together and then fill muffin cups with mixture.

Bake for 15 minutes, let cool and eat!

Dark Guinness ® Agave Sweetened Brownies (Beer Brownies) I don't normally dream of desserts but after I made this for the first time I couldn't stop thinking about it - These brownies are my ultimate dark chocolate dream!

Yes, there are carbs and very little sugar from the bittersweet chocolate.

Chocolate Coconut Agave Cake Diabetic Friendly

Chocolate Coconut Agave Cake Recipe I made this layer cake yesterday for my diabetic husband's birthday. It was such a hit, I will definitely be making this again. The coconut oil really gives it a unique flavor plus it's good for you! It came out prettier than the picture but this was the best shot I could get since we already ate half of it. This cake is not low fat by any means, it's super moist, yet fluffy. You would never guess it's sugar free. If you've never tried agave syrup as a sugar substitute I urge you to give it a try. It doesn't spike your blood glucose like sugar and it's better than artificial sweeteners in my opinion. It does have carbs/calories but my husband can eat desserts made with agave without his blood sugar going high or low. 1 C. boiling water 1 C. unsweetened cocoa powder 1/2 C. butter 1/2 C. Coconut Oil 2 C. agave syrup (I use Trader Joe's) 1/2 C. sour cream (I used lite) 4 eggs 2 3/4 C. all purpose flour 2 tsp ...

Trader Joe's Agave Nectar is it Healthy?

There's been a lot of controversy in the news lately about Agave Nectar and how it compares to high fructose corn syrup so I emailed Trader Joe's directly and asked them their opinion, this was the answer I got: "...Below is some detailed information about Agave Nectar and recent concerns regarding high fructose corn syrup. The simple nature of the organic farming and processing clearly differentiate the product from any comparison to High Fructose Corn Syrup. We are unsure as to why organic blue agave seems to be under such concerted attack at the moment. It is rapidly growing in popularity as a multi-purpose natural sweetener with consumers. Unfortunately, our experience with those making the majority of these attacks on blue agave is that they have little interest in a reasoned debate as they consider 'caloric' sweeteners generally as the root of all evil. They tend to hide behind the anonymity of the internet and basically feed off any attempt to...
