Notes

While fructose is not allowed on the I Quit Sugar: 8-Week Program, this recipe contains a small amount of rice malt syrup (a blend of glucose and maltose), which can still affect your blood sugar levels. We recommend enjoying on special occasions or cutting down on the sweetener even further if you like.
