Sugarless and Wheat free

I have had a number of people ask if I do any gluten free baking.  


I do but the selection is not huge.


I have also recently had some friends whose husbands have been diagnosed with diabetes and one of them has a wheat sensitivity.

So, I went on the hunt for some recipes that would be helpful for my friends.


I discovered a blog called Chocolate Covered Katie.  Yes, there are a lot of recipes that included chocolate.  But most of them are wheat free and sugar free.


I saw one for oatmeal raisin cookie Larabars.  I had the ingredients in stock so, okay let's try them.

Well, they are very easy to make.  Although they only make 4 bars.  If you made balls you could get more servings.


They were okay, if you are used to sugar free they would probably be great.


Roy thinks I should substitute another nut for the walnuts, they make the bars a bit bitter.  


My mother was not impressed at all.  I did not mention that they were sugar free before I offered a bit to her.


There are few other versions of the bar that include chocolate.  I will be trying them soon and will let tyou know how they fair.
