SUGAR FREE STEWED RHUBARB



Sugar Free Stewed Rhubarb image

I don't eat white sugar so substituted Erythritol for the sugar. Erythritol is an all natural sweetener made from plants. 1 cup of Erythritol equals 2/3 cups of sugar. I found this was fine in this recipe. The rhubarb isn't sweet but it's no longer tart either.

2 lb fresh rhubarb
1 c erythritol or xylitol

  • 2. Cut the rhubarb into 1" pieces.
  • 3. Add the rhubarb to a medium saucespan and turn on the heat to medium high. Add the water.
  • 4. Cook for about 5 minutes.

  • 8. Enjoy!
