How do I sweeten the cookie dough for diabetic cookies?
My husband is a diabetic and I would like to bake some cookies for him. Can I use fructose for diabetic cookies?

Make the cookies according to the recipe!! It isn’t the little bit of sugar in them that will hurt, it is the WHITE FLOUR!
I make all cookies, pies and cakes as I used to. I just make the cookies smaller, half the serving size of pie or cake!
We all need our “cheat treats” and must plan them in to our food plans. They need to be real treats!! My endo said to never crave for anything. If I wanted a piece of “Death by Chocolate Cake” to have one, but to make the serving size about half!
Sugar itself doesn’t bother me nearly as much as FLOURS in foods do. It doesn’t matter much whether it is White Refined to the Nth degree flour or Whole Grain flour. It is much worse for my glucose numbers than sugar is.
Baked goods require sugar to brown properly.

You both should talk with his endocrinologist- this is NOT a job for a GP.
Research is changing the way we treat diabetes so fast a GP cannot be expected to keep up with that.
The endo can help you see a dietitian or diabetes educator who will teach you about counting carbs.
This is the gold standard in treatment right now.
Start subscribing to diabetes magazines and keep up with the world of diabetes.
We count carbos not sugar.
Make your regular cookies and enjoy.
