- Use a natural sweetener: Instead of refined sugar, use a natural sweetener like stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit. These sweeteners have no calories or carbohydrates and will not raise blood sugar levels.
- Add healthy fats: Healthy fats, such as those found in nuts, seeds, and avocado, can help slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream and keep you feeling full and satisfied.
- Add fiber: Fiber is important for digestive health and can help to lower blood sugar levels. Add fiber to your cranberry orange bread by using whole wheat flour, oats, or chia seeds.
- Watch your portion size: Even healthy foods can raise blood sugar levels if you eat too much of them. Be mindful of your portion size when eating cranberry orange bread and other treats.
