Sweetness choices — tap to lower sugar

Use the listed ingredients and amounts. Nutrition, saved shopping and meal planning remain based on this version.

Preparation guidance only. When a supported swap is chosen, Nutrition per serving below shows the adjusted values; filters, sugar screening, exports, Shopping and My Week stay based on the written recipe. A different sweetener does not establish diabetes suitability; total carbs, portion and verified sugars still matter.

Sugar alcohols may cause digestive symptoms; keep xylitol away from dogs. Aspartame must be avoided with PKU. No substitute is universally the healthiest choice.

Heart-healthy tips

Unsweetened coconut keeps sugar low — enjoy one or two.
Fruit and spices do most of the sweetening — keep added sugar low.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

Applies to: Baked cookies, after baking. Times assume safe preparation, prompt cooling when needed, a refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C or below, and a freezer at 0°F / -18°C or below.

Counter/pantry: After baking: keep in an airtight container at cool room temperature for 2–3 days.

Refrigerator: For longer keeping, refrigerate airtight up to 1 week.

Freezer: Freezer-Friendly. Best quality within about 3 months.

To thaw: Thaw wrapped portions at room temperature — suitable for plain baked cookies.

To reheat or serve: Thaw and enjoy; warming is optional.

Meal prep tip: Freeze in packs of 1 piece, matching one serving. Label packages with the recipe name, portion, and date frozen.

Raw dough / unbaked option: Raw dough: freeze portioned dough up to 3 months and bake before eating — raw flour is not ready-to-eat, even in egg-free dough.
