Kissel - Amazing Sugar Free Dessert

Apr 14, 2014  |  Category: Recipes

We all need some sweetness in our lives, and when on a fat loss mission this can become an issue. That's unless you know how to treat yourself while still moving forward towards your goals. A great thing to have when you really fancy something sweet is kissel. What is kissel I hear you ask?

Kissel is a fruit dessert common in Easter Europe. It's something in between compot and jelly. My grandma used to make it for me since I was a little kid, and I finally learned this simple recipe during a recent visit.

As always I like to remix things, so I've adapted it to my health & fitness goals by making sure that I don't need to add any extra sugar.

Is it sugar free? It has no added sugar, which is a good thing for your health and not just fat loss. And apart from the naturally occuring sugars in fruit, you also get a whole bunch of micronutrients. I'm talking vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals - these awesome little things that contribute to cellular function and provide the foundation for many metabolic and physiological processes in the body.

Here is what you need for about 8 servings of kissel:

  • 6 small apples (0p 120c 0f)
  • 3 small pears (3p 66c 0f)
  • 100g dried mixed fruit (2p 68c 1f)
  • 2 tbsp potato starch (0p 20c 0f)
  • 40g Stevia

On top:

  • 100g 0% Total Greek Yoghurt (10p 4c 0f)

TOTAL: 10g protein, 38g carbs, 0g fat (per serving)

Portion size should be individualised for best results.
