How to consume apple dessert crisp without glucose spikes

Opt for Smaller Portions

Limit the serving size of the apple dessert crisp to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Add Protein

Pair the dessert with a source of lean protein, such as a small serving of Greek yogurt or a handful of nuts, to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a small portion of cheese to further moderate glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

Use whole grain oats or whole wheat flour in the crisp topping to add fiber and reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on the dessert as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce sugar spikes.

Drink Water

Have a glass of water with your dessert to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Add Leafy Greens

Include a side of leafy greens such as spinach or kale to add fiber and nutrients that can help balance the meal.

Increase Physical Activity

Go for a short walk after enjoying the dessert to help muscles absorb glucose more efficiently.

Use Less Sugar

Reduce the sugar content in the recipe by using natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.

Include a Pre-Meal Salad

Start your meal with a salad containing ingredients like lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers to introduce fiber and slow the digestion process.
