Gummies are a classic Halloween treat, but they’re often loaded with sugar. A diabetic-friendly alternative is sugar-free berry gummies, which can be easily made using gelatin or agar-agar and a natural sweetener like monk fruit. Berries, such as strawberries and blueberries, are naturally low in sugar and high in antioxidants, making them an ideal choice for a healthier gummy. By pureeing the berries and mixing them with the gelling agent and sweetener, you can create a chewy, flavorful treat that’s both visually appealing and delicious. These gummies are not only a fun addition to Halloween festivities but also a great way to enjoy a sweet treat without the sugar spike.

Peanut butter and banana are a classic combination that’s both satisfying and nutritious. By using a natural, unsweetened peanut butter and ripe bananas, you can create a treat that’s naturally sweet and packed with protein and fiber. These bites can be made by slicing bananas into rounds, spreading a thin layer of peanut butter, and topping them with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few dark chocolate chips. The natural sugars in bananas are balanced by the healthy fats and proteins in peanut butter, making this a balanced snack that can help maintain steady blood sugar levels. These bites are an excellent option for a quick, easy, and diabetic-friendly Halloween treat.
