Recipes With Stevia
Stevia is a safe, nonglycemic sweetener that can be sprinkled on fruits, stirred into iced tea or coffee or used in baking in place of refined sugar. Approved by the FDA in 1996 as a food supplement, instead of a food additive, it is commonly found in certain commercial cookies, cakes and other foods. Using stevia at home is matter of knowing the conversion. For example, you could use six packets of stevia powder in place of ¼ cup of refined sugar. It is safe to consume from the packet, or in baked or cooked foods.
