You're not imagining it - these cookies are great for the occasional treat in Phase 1! This recipe is straight out of the SBD SuperCharged book, with one very important modification - no jelly! Because there's no flour in this, it's also a great recipe for those looking for gluten-free sweets.
3/4 c granular sugar substitute
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 c creamy or chunky trans-fat free peanut butter
1 tsp baking soda
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix sugar substitute, egg and vanilla together with an electric mixer on low for 3 minutes. Add peanut butter and baking soda. Mix on medium until dough comes together, about 30 seconds.
3. Form balls from dough (about 2 tsp size) and place on cookie sheets. Press fork into the center of each cookie.
4. Bake until lightly browned on the bottom, about 12 to 14 minutes.
Note: For a phase 2 version, you can indent each cookie with your thumb and add 1/2 tsp of sugar free jam before baking.

Whole Wheat Bread - Phase 2
This recipe is specifically designed to go in your bread machine. Follow your particular machine's instructions for wet/dry order. I've constructed this recipe for the one I use which wants wet ingredients first.
1 1/3 c warm water
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp brown sugar*
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 c whole wheat flour
1/4 c vital wheat gluten (aka gluten flour)
2 tsp active dry yeast
2 tbsp powdered non-fat milk
* Remember that for bread you must use real sugar or honey for the yeast to activate.
Add ingredients to your machine per manufacturer's directions.
I like to use my bread machine do everything for me but bake. I preheat my oven to 375 degrees. After my machine has gone through the mix/knead/rise cycles, I remove dough from machine and roll out with rolling pin and roll up into a log like cinnamon rolls. I shape the log to fix my bread pan and then bake and let rise one last time for about 30 minutes. Then I bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until the top is just turning golden brown.
Suggested additions to your wheat bread:
Sunflower seeds
Wheat germ
Bran
Oatmeal
Nuts
Cinnamon
Dried fruit (legal for SBD, like apples)
1 1/3 c warm water
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp brown sugar*
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 c whole wheat flour
1/4 c vital wheat gluten (aka gluten flour)
2 tsp active dry yeast
2 tbsp powdered non-fat milk
