05 Mar Pear Crisp
Managing blood sugar doesn’t mean you have to give up desserts! The key is to build treats that support blood sugar balance by incorporating fiber, healthy fats, and whole-food ingredients. Instead of relying on refined sugars and processed carbs, you can create a satisfying, nutrient-dense dessert that not only tastes delicious but also supports your overall health.
One of my favorite ways to do this is by using pears—a naturally sweet, high-fiber fruit that adds both nutrition and flavor to any dessert. Today, I’m sharing a simple Pear Crisp Recipe that will satisfy your sweet tooth while keeping your blood sugar in check.
