[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1013715, member: 53162"] Hiya - I went through the same process - trying to find a low GI sugar alternative, I decided for baking to use Stevia a plant based sweetener as didn't want to use an artificial (chemical) based sweetener, this works great for baking and is low carb, for sweetening the odd pancake I opted for Agave Nectar, a low GI alternative, but a sugar based sweetener, regardless. I am wary of anything ending with ..tose, it generally means sugar which to me is a spike, there are some great blogs around of people cooking without using sugar, normally you can sweeten with things such as dried fruit as well as Stevia and other plant based sweeteners but takes some investigation, unfortunately as with any bake you cant' avoid the carb spike due to the other ingredients, but if it's low gi then the spike isn't so bad ;) [/QUOTE]
