Christmas without sugar

Christmas time has always been filled with quality family time in our house: crafts, baking and gift giving. And even though sweets are often a part of tradition building gingerbread houses, baking cookies and sweets we’ve begun our own tradition of keeping it as low in sugar as possible.

Our ‘gingerbread house’ is actually made from crafts, cookies made gluten free with sugar-less frosting (and it’s delicious) and always a pint of sugar-less ice cream in the freezer (made with coconut milk, mint and stevia) to top our homemade fruit pies.

We enjoy the time dedicated to us and health ( and our company seems to enjoy them too). I’ll be posting a few of our favorite holiday treats to share for now and in the future.

Be well,
Lynn
