  • These are my favorite whole food cookies (I use butter since the fake stuff is, well, fake) http://www.kripalu.org/article/551#vegan
    Kripalu's Almond Butter Oatmeal Cookies. And if one or two falls off the pan and crumbles, it is a great addition to your oatmeal.

    I usually make them quite small, so they have about 95 calories each. And then I usually eat too many of them.
  • I'm surprised I didn't see anything listed. Add one tablespoon wheat gluten per cup of WW flour to help it rise more.

    Thank you so much for this link. This blog is amazing. So many great food ideas!!
  • Prunes are meant to be decent fat substitutes as well. I worked out how to make a fantastic chocolate prune cake that year I was gluten-free (I'm also vegan), and it didn't have much added fat in it. Of course, I still need to stay off that sort of thing these days, I'm small enough that I don't have the calories to spare for desserts apart from fruit.
