What are the best diabetic cookie recipes that don’t compromise on flavor. How can people with diabetes still enjoy delicious cookies while managing blood sugar. Which ingredients work well for low-carb, sugar-free cookie options.

Understanding Diabetes and Dietary Restrictions

Living with diabetes requires careful management of blood sugar levels, often necessitating significant dietary changes. For many, this means limiting or eliminating sugar and high-carbohydrate foods. However, this doesn’t mean people with diabetes can’t enjoy tasty treats like cookies. With the right ingredients and recipes, it’s possible to create delicious diabetic-friendly cookies that don’t spike blood glucose levels.

What makes a cookie diabetic-friendly?

Diabetic-friendly cookies typically have the following characteristics:

• Low in sugar or use sugar substitutes
• Higher in fiber
• Lower in carbohydrates
• Made with whole grains
• Include healthy fats

By focusing on these elements, bakers can create cookies that are not only safe for people with diabetes but also nutritious and satisfying.

Sugar-Free Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies

One excellent option for diabetic-friendly cookies is the Sugar-Free Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookie. These cookies are not only delicious but also easy to make. Here’s a breakdown of the recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 ¼ Cup creamy, salted peanut butter
• 2 Large eggs
• ½ Cup Splenda Granulated Sweetener
• 1 Tsp vanilla extract
• ¼ Tsp sea salt
• ¾ Cup peanuts (optional)

How to make Sugar-Free Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, eggs, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. Mix until smooth.
3. If using, gently fold in the peanut pieces for added crunch.
4. Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten with a fork in a crisscross pattern.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden.
6. Allow to cool completely before handling, as they will crisp up during this time.

These cookies are not only sugar-free and low-carb but also packed with protein from the peanut butter, making them a satisfying treat for those managing diabetes.

Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Another excellent option for diabetic-friendly cookies is the Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookie. Almond flour is a low-carb alternative to traditional wheat flour, making it an excellent choice for those managing diabetes.

Why is almond flour a good choice for diabetic cookies?

Almond flour is high in protein and healthy fats, and low in carbohydrates. It also has a lower glycemic index compared to wheat flour, meaning it won’t cause rapid spikes in blood sugar levels. Additionally, almond flour adds a rich, nutty flavor to cookies that many people enjoy.

Recipe for Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies:

• 2 cups almond flour
• ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
• ¼ cup sugar-free sweetener (like erythritol)
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Mix all ingredients except chocolate chips, then fold in the chips. Scoop onto a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. These cookies offer the classic chocolate chip cookie experience without the sugar spike.

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies with a Diabetic Twist

Oatmeal raisin cookies are a classic favorite, and with a few modifications, they can be made diabetes-friendly. Oats are a great choice for people with diabetes as they’re high in fiber, which helps slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

How can oatmeal cookies be made diabetic-friendly?

To make oatmeal raisin cookies suitable for those with diabetes:

• Use whole grain oats for added fiber
• Replace sugar with a low-carb sweetener like stevia or monk fruit
• Use unsweetened applesauce to replace some of the fat and add natural sweetness
• Add cinnamon, which may help improve insulin sensitivity
• Use fewer raisins or replace them with chopped nuts for fewer carbs

By making these adjustments, you can create a delicious oatmeal cookie that’s much more diabetes-friendly than traditional recipes.

Coconut Macaroons: A Naturally Low-Carb Option

Coconut macaroons are a naturally low-carb cookie option that can be easily adapted for people with diabetes. Coconut is low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, making it an excellent choice for blood sugar management.

What makes coconut macaroons a good choice for diabetics?

Coconut macaroons have several benefits for those managing diabetes:

• Low in carbohydrates
• High in fiber, which slows sugar absorption
• Contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which may help improve insulin sensitivity
• Can be made with minimal ingredients
• Easy to customize with different flavors

To make diabetic-friendly coconut macaroons, simply mix unsweetened shredded coconut with egg whites and a sugar-free sweetener. You can add sugar-free chocolate chips or a touch of almond extract for extra flavor. Bake until golden for a delicious, diabetes-friendly treat.

Keto-Friendly Snickerdoodles

Snickerdoodles are beloved for their cinnamon-sugar coating and soft, chewy texture. While traditional snickerdoodles are high in sugar and carbs, it’s possible to create a keto-friendly version that’s suitable for people with diabetes.

How to make keto-friendly snickerdoodles:

1. Use almond flour instead of wheat flour
2. Replace sugar with a keto-friendly sweetener like erythritol
3. Use butter or coconut oil for richness
4. Add cream of tartar for the classic tangy flavor
5. Roll in a mixture of cinnamon and granulated sweetener before baking

These adjustments result in a low-carb, sugar-free snickerdoodle that captures the essence of the original cookie without the blood sugar spike.

No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies

No-bake cookies are a convenient option for quick, easy treats. For those with diabetes, a no-bake peanut butter cookie recipe can be adapted to be both delicious and blood sugar-friendly.

What makes no-bake cookies a good option for diabetics?

No-bake cookies have several advantages:

• Quick and easy to prepare
• Can be made with minimal, whole food ingredients
• Easy to control portion sizes
• Can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for a cool treat

To make diabetic-friendly no-bake peanut butter cookies, mix natural peanut butter with sugar-free sweetener, vanilla extract, and a bit of coconut flour to help bind them together. Form into cookies and refrigerate until firm. These cookies are high in protein and healthy fats, making them a satisfying snack option.

Ginger Snap Cookies with a Diabetic Twist

Ginger snaps are known for their spicy flavor and crisp texture. For a diabetic-friendly version, some creative substitutions can maintain the classic taste while reducing sugar and carbs.

How to adapt ginger snap cookies for diabetics:

• Use almond flour or a blend of almond and coconut flour instead of wheat flour
• Replace molasses with a small amount of blackstrap molasses (which is lower in sugar) or a sugar-free syrup
• Use a granulated sugar substitute like monk fruit sweetener
• Increase the amount of ginger and add other warming spices like cinnamon and cloves for flavor without sugar

These adaptations result in a spicy, crisp cookie that captures the essence of ginger snaps without the high sugar content.

Chocolate Avocado Cookies: A Nutrient-Dense Option

For chocolate lovers with diabetes, chocolate avocado cookies offer a rich, fudgy experience without the sugar overload. Avocado serves as a healthy fat source and provides a creamy texture, while also adding nutrients and fiber.

Benefits of using avocado in diabetic-friendly cookies:

• High in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats
• Provides fiber, which helps slow sugar absorption
• Rich in potassium, which is important for heart health
• Adds moisture and creaminess without dairy
• Neutral flavor allows chocolate to shine

To make chocolate avocado cookies, blend ripe avocado with cocoa powder, a sugar-free sweetener, and a small amount of almond flour. Add sugar-free chocolate chips for extra indulgence. These cookies offer a fudgy texture and rich chocolate flavor while being low in carbs and sugar.

Lemon Ricotta Cookies: A Light and Refreshing Treat

Lemon ricotta cookies offer a light, refreshing alternative to heavier cookie options. With some modifications, these cookies can be made diabetes-friendly while maintaining their delicate flavor and texture.

How to make lemon ricotta cookies suitable for diabetics:

1. Use almond flour or a low-carb flour blend instead of wheat flour
2. Replace sugar with a granulated sugar substitute
3. Use full-fat ricotta cheese, which is lower in carbs than low-fat versions
4. Add plenty of lemon zest for flavor without added sugar
5. Top with a sugar-free lemon glaze made with powdered erythritol and lemon juice

These cookies offer a bright, citrusy flavor and a tender texture, making them a perfect light dessert or tea-time treat for those managing diabetes.

Tips for Baking Diabetic-Friendly Cookies

When baking cookies suitable for people with diabetes, keep these tips in mind to ensure success:

What are the key considerations when baking for diabetics?

• Choose low-glycemic sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol
• Opt for nutrient-dense flours like almond or coconut flour
• Include healthy fats from nuts, seeds, or avocado
• Add fiber-rich ingredients to slow sugar absorption
• Use dark chocolate or sugar-free chocolate chips for chocolate flavors
• Experiment with spices and extracts to add flavor without sugar
• Be mindful of portion sizes
• Always check nutritional information and consult with a healthcare provider about incorporating treats into a diabetes management plan

By following these guidelines, it’s possible to create delicious cookies that fit within a diabetes-friendly diet. Remember, moderation is key, and even diabetic-friendly treats should be enjoyed as part of a balanced meal plan.

51 Best Packaged Snacks for People with Diabetes

There are so many great packaged snacks for diabetes on the market, but you need to know what to look for!

Having easy to grab, on-the-go snacks makes life a lot easier when you are managing diabetes. Keep reading for my comprehensive list of the best packaged snacks for diabetes!

*Disclaimer: This blog post is not sponsored in anyway. These are all truly my favorite packaged snacks for diabetes. However, I do work with some of these brands occasionally. That’s actually one of my favorite things about my job… some of my favorite foods to eat are also my clients! And some of the links in this post are affiliate links. What does that mean? It means that if you click on a link and end up purchasing that product, I may get a small commission, but it doesn’t cost you anything extra.

Also, this article is not intended to provide medical advice, diagnosis, opinion, treatment or services. This article and the links contained in it provide general information for educational purposes only. The information provided in this article is not a substitute for medical care, and should not be used in place of the advice of your physician or registered dietitian.

What to look for in healthy snacks for diabetes? 

Before we dive in, I thought it would be good review to talk about what we are looking for in a snack for people with diabetes, and what factors I considered when choosing the recommended packaged snacks for diabetes below. 

We want packaged snacks that:

• Have at least 4g of protein or 4g of fiber or both
• Preferably contain some sort of plant based fat source, though not required
• Are made from whole grains (if applicable)
• Are low glycemic index
• Are made from quality ingredients
• Are easy to consume on-the-go
• Are low in sugar relative to the overall carbohydrate count

Now, obviously there are going to be some exceptions to this, and I will try to note those as best I can, but it’s important to remember not to approach food with a list of black and white guidelines. Food has nuance. There is an ebb and a flow to what works sometimes and doesn’t work at other times. Just something to keep in mind. 

And, if you want to read more in depth on this idea of balancing blood sugars and choosing the right foods, make sure to check out this article here. 

It’s important to have some favorite healthy store bought snacks

Like I said above, it’s important to have a list of good go-to options for packaged snacks. Whether you have diabetes or not, we all live busy lives at one point or another and people with diabetes deserve to have good options to choose from just like everyone else. And making everything from scratch at home just isn’t realistic.

What’s on my list of best snacks for diabetes?

If you keep scrolling you’ll see the following categories of packaged snacks for diabetes: crackers, chips, popcorn, bars, cookies, desserts, eat with a spoon, breakfast cereals, low blood sugar treatments, and kid-friendly. If you have another category you’d like to see me tackle, leave a comment at the end and I’ll add it!

I’ve listed several options in each category. Does this mean these are all of the best out of every product on the market? No. In spite of how much research I do, there’s just no way to know every single product that’s on the market. Each category has my favorites for both “diabetes-friendliness” and flavor/taste/texture etc.

*As you’ll see noted below, I decided to expand on the energy/protein/snack “bar” category and have a whole separate blog post on this packaged snacks for diabetes category. You can access that post here, and I’ll link it again below.

Are snacks for type 1 diabetes different than snacks for type 2 diabetes?

Since I get asked pretty frequently if the products I recommend and recipes I develop are just for people with type 1 diabetes (probably because I myself have type 1), I want to clarify… 

Just like all of the other content I put out here on my website and on social media, the recommendations for snacks in this post apply to people with all types of diabetes, and anyone looking to balance blood sugars and energy levels.

List of best packaged snacks for diabetes

Best crackers for diabetes

As a general guide, try to choose crackers that are made from whole grains or nuts and seeds.

Best chips for diabetes

Many of the options below use beans as a base. This adds additional protein and fiber.

Best popcorn for diabetes

Popcorn is naturally higher in fiber than other crunchy/salty snacks, but when flavorings are added like caramel or kettle corn, it’s important to pay attention to how much sugar is being added. 

Best snack bars for diabetes

This was by far the most requested category! I’ve listed a few of my favorites below, but make sure to check out this full blog post here that breaks down every category of “bar.”

Best store bought cookies for diabetes

When it comes to cookies, we want to decrease the sugar as much as possible but still have a delicious cookie! One way to do this is to find grain free cookies made with nut based flours so there’s less carbs, and more protein and fat… but still a delicious cookie!

Best desserts for diabetes

The desserts below are an assortment of lower sugar and higher protein chocolates and candies, as well as some of my favorite lower sugar and higher protein frozen treats!

Best snacks you eat with a spoon for diabetes

From yogurts to puddings to everything in between, my favorite lower sugar and higher protein options are below.

Best breakfast cereals for diabetes

These cereals below are higher in fiber and protein and lower in sugar than traditional breakfast cereals! Another option if you have a favorite breakfast cereal that’s not exactly “blood sugar friendly” is to pair your cereal with plain 2% Greek yogurt instead of milk. The added fat and protein (and lower carbohydrate count) of the Greek yogurt compared to milk, may help balance blood sugars better.

Best packaged low blood sugar treatments for diabetes

Did you know you can treat a low blood sugar with more than just candy and glucose gel? These are some of my favorite store-bought packaged options. (Check with your doctor to make sure they are ok with these options for you.)

• Applesauce pouches (I just grab the store brand unsweetened variety. Most are 12-15g carb/pouch)
• Raisins (The mini boxes are typically 11-12g/box)
• Juice boxes (Most stores offer shelf stable juice boxes that are 12-18g carb depending on the flavor you choose.)
• Fruit snacks (So quick and easy, and cheap!)
• Banana (Pre-packaged by nature, and highly portable!)

Best snacks for kids with diabetes

Kids love salty, crunchy snacks it seems. These are some of my favorite lower carbohydrate crunchy options. (Note: I am not saying kids with diabetes need to eat low carb. All of the snacks in this post are good for kids, but sometimes a child’s blood sugar might be high and they are hungry. These lower carb options are good for those situations.) Also great for adults too! And all of the snacks listed in this entire blog post are great for kids too!

Sugar-Free Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe

These are great! I was so excited to find a good sugar-free recipe for cookies. I added 3/4 cup of oatmeal, and a teaspoon of vanilla. I am making this for the 3rd time this weekend. Thank you!

These cookies are truley a gift from heaven for those who have diabetes or are watching their sugar intake! I love to bake for my family, but unfortunately my mother has diabetes, so i am always in search of sugar-free recipes that taste like “the real thing”. This cookie is crumbly/crunchy on the ends, but soft and chewy in the center…the best of both worlds! Even better, the cookies are virtually carb-free as well….which is a plus for diabetics! Thakyou so much!!!

Great cookies for sugar-free! I found that they were the best consistency a few hours after baking, and into the next day. When warm, they crumbled, but after cooling through they were great! I added vanilla and will use half white/half brown sugar Splenda next time. Thanks for a great base recipe for sugar-free cookies, I will play around with this to perfect it to my tastes! NOTE: I made again with Simply Jif and they turned out fabulous! I’ve found that I need to bake them 2-5 minutes longer than the 8 min the recipe calls for…

I am not sure what some reviewers were expecting from a flourless sugar-free cookie recipe. Of course they are not going to be of the same texture and taste of a traditional peanut butter cookie however given the parameters I found these cookies to be an exceptionally delicious and satisfying alternative for those who must or choose to limit their consumption of simple carbohydrates. My tips: Start out with less Splenda for your first attempt and adjust to taste with subsequent batches. (I used only 1/2 C. as I prefer subtle sweetness. 2 C. would have been far too much for my taste.) Add 1 t. of vanilla. Roll dough into approximately 1 inch balls (bite-sized) and flatten with the tines of a fork in a crisscross pattern as with traditional PB cookies. (I believe that this step helped to avoid the crumbling issue that others have cited.) I cooked mine for 10 minutes though ALL OVENS VARY so watch for signs that your cookies are dry and set in the center. Cool on pan for about 1 minute before attempting to GENTLY transfer with a spatula to a wire rack to cool further (at least half an hour or more). I used Smucker’s natural creamy peanut butter. As an aside I always use air-filled baking sheets as in my experience they virtually eliminate the problem of overcooked bottoms on cookies.

Great recipe! My family LOVES it but mind you they are used to splenda when I first tried them I was sure no one would like them. On the contrary. I make them weekly now I only bake 1/2 a batch at a time and add 1 tsp of vanilla to it I’ve never tried it without. Good with crunchy Peanut butter as well. Edit to review; I’ve since tried with low fat p-nut butter & like them but hubbie didn’t enjoy as much says they didn’t ‘melt in his mouth’.

When they first came out of the oven my initial reaction was not good – the flavor seemed off and they were very crumbly and messy. However after they cooled completely everything seemed to work better. Very good.

I hate to give a bad review but these were the worst cookies i’ve ever made. They were NOT yummy crumbly and soft but more like touch them and they fell apart completely and crumbled like sand.

It’s great to find a cookie without flour. I added a teaspon of vanilla to this. Cookies are very soft quick and good.

This was a fantastic cookie recipe! I used crunchy peanut butter and it was glorious! Thank you for such a great recipe!

Diabetic Friendly Jam Cookies – No Sugar Added Thumbprint Cookies

Diabetic Friendly Jam Cookies – No Sugar Added Thumbprint Cookies

As a diabetic, sometimes I just want cookies!! I really don’t eat sweets all that often, but I have been looking for alternatives that are healthy and not sugar filled.  Because even though I want sweets, I feel horribly after I eat them if they are filled with sugar. Thumbprint cookies remind me of my childhood, my Mom used to find the best bakeries wherever we went:) In Monterey, CA there was a bakery with delicious, nutty, jam filled cookies, seriously this makes me think of our trip to northern Cali.  That’s how these diabetic friendly jam cookies came to exist.  They are no sugar added thumbprint cookies:)

I made the no sugar added apricot jam in a previous recipe post.  I used apricots because we had a tree full of apricots and we could have never eaten them all before they spoiled.  The jam includes chia seeds to thicken it, apricots and Truvia, which is my new favorite sugar alternative.  It’s made from stevia, which is natural and doesn’t contain any carbs. So they feel like I’m eating real cookies with all the sweetness, but really, it’s almonds, apricots and truvia!! That’s a win in my book:)

Here’s my low sugar apricot jam recipe.  You can always substitute a store bought sugar free jam if you like:) I don’t usually use them because I try to avoid fake sugar alternatives because they leave a sweet taste in my mouth, which I dislike.

These cookies are easy to make, you mix all the ingredients, ball them, roll them in the nut of your choice, press them on your cookie sheet and fill with jam:) What could be easier!?  I used chopped walnuts and pecans and I think the pecans were my favorite, but they were both delicious.

This recipe makes 16 cookies, the carb count from the almond flour is 3g per cookie.  The jam has sugar from the apricots only, I estimate the jam has 1.5g per Tbs.  So each cookie is less than 5g carbs:)

What are the best sugar-free chocolate chips that I can use?

When looking for sugar-free chocolate chips to use in making your next dessert, look for those with sweeteners that give your desired amount of sweetness, and have no aftertaste. Examples of sweeteners are monk fruit, maltitol, erythritol, stevia, and chicory root fiber. Another is allulose that’s recommended to diabetics because it doesn’t affect the blood sugar and is anti-inflammatory.

What other cookies are good for diabetics?

Diabetes-Friendly Desserts | Martha Stewart

It’s a common misconception that people with diabetes can’t eat dessert. No matter if you have Type 1, a chronic condition in which the body produces little to no insulin, or Type 2, a chronic condition in which the body resists the effects of insulin or doesn’t produce enough, diabetics can eat anything they want, so long as they do so in moderation. This is key since carbohydrates, like starches and sugars, are the main contributor to glucose response, so it’s important to be mindful about what you’re consuming.

That being said, it’s important to understand what diabetes really is in order to manage it properly. “Diabetes is a result of inadequate insulin and is not caused by too much sugar,” says Amanda Kirpitch, nutrition and diabetes educator and owner and founder of Nutrition Perspective. “Diabetes-friendly foods are choices that taste good and [provide nutrition] without the frustration that comes with an unexpected glucose response.” All types of foods can be incorporated into diets for people with diabetes. “Combining carbohydrates with protein and fat, as well as choosing higher fiber carbohydrate sources, can produce a more modest rise in glucose that is easier to match to the body’s natural insulin or medications,” says Kirptich. She suggests adding nut butters or higher fat dairy to balance out a quicker rising refined carbohydrate choice, or simply go with more natural sugars that are easier on the body—like in our Dark Chocolate Walnut Date Bar found in the slides ahead.

A delicious, easy-to-make recipe that’s also easy on the body’s glucose response is Dark Chocolate Dipped Cherries, pictured here. Dr. Ileana Vargas, MD, MS assistant professor of pediatrics pediatric endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism at Columbia University Medical Center, recommends this sweet treat and others like it. “Dark chocolate covered berries and nuts [are a great choice] for both [types of diabetes] because the nuts have Omega 3’s…the dark chocolate has antioxidants and the berries are lower glycemic types of foods. They have more fiber, so they’re friendly for both [types of diabetes],” she says.

When in doubt, a go-to way to have better blood sugars and still eat what you want is to monitor your portion sizes. Both Dr. Vargas and Kirpitch recommend splitting a dessert with a friend. That way you can still eat what it is you’re really craving, but you’re limiting the carbohydrate intake. Ahead, find desserts that feature a more diabetes-friendly approach thanks to a combination of fiber, fats, carbohydrates, and other nutritious components.

Unfortunately, all the usual sweets, pastries, cakes and pastries are strictly contraindicated in diabetes.But what if it is impossible to resist the desire to enjoy dessert? It turns out that even a diabetic can enjoy sweet and delicious desserts that are allowed for this disease. Diabetic candy, cookies, baked goods, and other sweets can be purchased at specialty stores or prepared at home.

When choosing sweets, it is imperative to study the composition of the product. If it has a lot of fats, calories or contains preservatives, then it is better to refuse to purchase.

If the store does not have a diabetic section, you can buy biscuits or savory crackers. There is very little sugar in these types of cookies, but this does not mean that you can eat as much as you want. Cookie dough is made from wheat flour and excessive consumption will cause blood glucose to rise.

It is forbidden for diabetics to consume regular oatmeal cookies from the store. Despite the fact that healthy oat flour is used in its preparation, a large amount of sugar is added to the dough.Therefore, the best oatmeal cookies for diabetes are home-made.
