Sugar-Free Syrup

Hi,

Since I am gluten free, your recipe for low carb crepes piqued my interest. However, I do not know what sugar free syrup would be or where to buy it? can you make it at home.

Thanks,

Denise


Hi Denise,

You can buy Agave syrup through GlobalGoods.com or buy sugar-free syrup in grocery stores on the syrup/pancake mix aisle. You can use splenda in place of sugar to make your own syrup (Boil 1 cup water and 2 cups splenda for 5-10 minutes. Flavor with 1 teaspoon maple flavoring.) You can also make my favorite fruit syrup with no added sugar.

Desi's Date Sauce

Cover 7 pitted, whole dates with 1 cup water. Bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes. Pour water and dates into blender container. Add 1 cup berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.). Blend until smooth. The dates will thicken and sweeten the sauce naturally. Serve over pancakes, waffles, or ice cream!

Happy Cook'n,

Desiri Wightman, R.D.
