Diabetes Diet: This Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free Halwa Is Perfect To Satiate Your Sweet Tooth
Diabetes is a difficult to manage, we all know that. But what can be more difficult for diabetics is to resist the temptation of all those heavenly desserts that are an intrinsic part of Indian households. From barfi, to kheer to halwa, no Indian meal is complete without a final serving of these drool-worthy desserts. For all those diabetics, who have sweet tooth, we have a recipe of a halwa that you can have a taste of, without feeling guilty.
This gluten-free halwa is made of polenta flour – ground cornmeal. You can easily find this flour in grocery stores. This is gluten-free flour, which makes it a good addition to a diabetes diet. Another great thing about this halwa is that it is sugar-free. The recipe uses banana instead to infuse some sweetness into the dessert. And the rich and creamy texture of the halwa that will turn out will make up for the sweetness of the sugar missing.

This hawla is as easy to make as any other halwa you’ve been making. In a wide pan, roast polenta flour in ghee till it turns aromatic and changes it colour. In another pan, heat some milk and throw in banana and saffron, and cook till you get a paste-like consistency. Add it to the roasted polenta. Add some more milk and cook everything together. Serve with the garnishing of dry fruits of your choice.
