Are you a cheesecake lover hesitant to indulge due to concerns about its impact on your blood sugar? You’re not alone! Cheesecake can be a tricky dessert. It’s typically high in both fat and sugar. Fat from the cream cheese can cause hypoglycemia while added table sugar can result in hyperglycemia. However, you can enjoy this beloved treat with a few simple tweaks. And guess what? You won’t even have to worry about its effects on your health.
How To Optimise Cheesecake
• Use almond flour or low-carb flour as the base for your crust.
• Swap out table sugar for stevia or other plant-based sweeteners.
• Incorporate high-fibre ingredients like nuts and fruits.
• Try using low-fat cream cheese or using greek yoghurt instead of cream cheese.
Fat and sugar are the two primary culprits in traditional cheesecake recipes that can cause blood sugar imbalances and derail your health goals. By using low-carb and low glycemic index alternatives, you can still enjoy cheesecake’s creamy, indulgent taste while supporting your fitness and wellness goals. So go ahead, and indulge in a slice of guilt-free cheesecake!
