Even people with diabetes can indulge themselves, from time to time, with a greedy dessert: what is important is to be able to formulate a suitable dessert, which does not burden the blood sugar and avoids the glycemic peaks linked to the consumption of sugars. So I propose the cake with pears, without sugar, without butter and with wholemeal spelled flour.

To keep fit and keep diabetes-related symptoms under control, remember to follow a "healthy, balanced diet and to practice lots of sport. And sugar-free cakes like this one I have proposed will be your reward!"Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
Pear Cake for Diabetics is a sweet food without added sucrose. It has a moderate caloric intake, even if the values refer to the composition of the raw and therefore well hydrated ingredients. Calories are mainly provided by carbohydrates and lipids, only secondarily by proteins. Most of the fatty acids are unsaturated, cholesterol is insignificant and fiber is quite abundant.
As the title suggests, this recipe is particularly suitable compared to other desserts in case of diabetes, but this does not mean that it can be consumed freely. Recall that the Pear Cake for Diabetics contains both lactose and gluten.
The average portion should not exceed 80g (110kcal).
