Recipe: Dr. Jiwani’s Guilt-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

(Low Carb Gluten-Free Grain-Free Dairy-Free Egg-Free Corn-Free Soy-Free Sugar-Free Suitable for Diabetic, Paleo, Keto, Vegan, Allergy Conscious & Candida Diets)

 

Dr. Jiwani’s Guilt-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies will sweeten your family’s disposition as they can still enjoy a healthy, allergy-free diet, even during the Holidays, when sugar-laden treats abound. No one can live on Kale alone, and I want kids to be aware that healthy food can taste yummy.  Substitutes are critical, as no one wants to trade Seaweed on the playground. My goal with these recipes is to provide low carb / keto, allergy-free & tasty options. Since it’s hard to eat only one cookie, making goodies low carb becomes essential so you’re not stressed when the family goes back for thirds.

I love using nut or seed flour for my baking as it provides fibre, protein, good fats and antioxidants.  Nut & Seed flours in baking keeps carbohydrates lower than grain flours, such as buckwheat, rice, corn, amaranth flours and other gluten substitutes like sorghum & tapioca starches. I have experimented with many nut and seed flours, thanks to my handy Cuisinart food processor grinding the nuts & seeds into a fine consistency.

Dr. Jiwani’s Guilt-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies are ideal for those looking for an old school favourite, yet Low Carb, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Egg-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free, Corn-Free, and suitable even for those following Paleo, Keto, Diabetic, Vegan, Allergy Conscious & Candida Diets

 

Health Benefits of Raw Organic Nuts & Seeds:

  • Lowers Cholesterol
  • Low Carbohydrate Content for Weight Loss
  • High Protein & Fibre for Stabilizing Blood Sugars & Bowel Regularity
  • Improved Brain Function & Prevents Alzheimers
  • Lowers Risk for Mortality & Chronic Diseases ( Gallstones, Cancer, Diabetes, Heart, Lung & Neurodegenerative Diseases) International Journal of Epidemiology 2015
  • High Antioxidants Reduce Inflammation

Once my health became an issue, I started reading labels and was astonished to find so much sugar & potential allergens (read “gluten-free” as a carb nightmare, and chock full of other allergies) in the cookies, often around 13 grams of Net Carbs per Cookie!

 

Typical Gluten-Free Product Ingredient Label (Read in Horror!):

Ingredients:

Flour Blend (Brown Rice Flour, White Rice Flour, Tapioca Starch, Sweet Rice Flour, Xanthan Gum), Organic Chocolate Chunks (Organic Evaporated Cane Sugar, Organic Cocoa Paste, Organic Cocoa Butter, Non-GMO Soy Lecithin/Emulsifier, Organic Vanilla. Chunks may contain traces of milk protein due to manufacturing equipment.), Monounsaturated Safflower Oil, Organic Evaporated Cane Sugar, Organic Eggs, Molasses, Gluten-Free Flavor, Non-GMO Soy Lecithin, Grape Juice & Whole Rice Syrup, Sea Salt, Baking Soda, Xanthan Gum.

Allergens: Eggs, Soy, Milk. Produced on equipment that also makes products containing peanuts, almonds, walnuts, pecans, coconut, eggs, soy and milk.

This year I began my Holiday baking with Dr. Jiwani’s Guilt-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies and I couldn’t make it fast enough for my family so I thought I would share it as it is quite easy to make!

Happy Holidays Everyone!
