This recipe can easily be made low in sugar. I used unsweetened coconut and Trader Joe's all natural crunchy peanut butter. The dates are a natural sugar with a high amount of fiber. This was great! Not too sweet and satisfies the chocolate craving! Thanks for sharing.

Great recipe. I always try to change recipes to cut out as many simple carbs as I can. I have a really picky kid, and it's one way I feel I can sneak in healthier choices. Sometimes it works well, and sometimes it is a flop! With this recipe, it worked really well. I used 1 cup applesauce (no oil)l, 1 1/4 cup brown sugar (no white sugar) and 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (no white flour). I find the all natural applesauce has enough sweetness that you can cut way back on the sugar. I also cut out the cinnamon as we don't like cinnamon. My super picky daughter loves it! Thanks for sharing!

This recipe is awesome! I always substitute applesauce for the oil. This also allows for cutting back on the sugar. I used 1 cup brown sugar and 3/4 cup white sugar. I also used 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour in place of white flour and because I don't like using only cinnamon, I used 2 tsp apple pie spice instead. My family loves it! What a great way to get my picky daughter to eat veggies. Thanks for sharing.
