They sound great, just not for diabetics. Hmmmm....I wonder how I can make them OK for me? Does the protein powder have any form of sugar in it?

.....I'm diabetic.

There's nothing in them that is bad for your blood sugar. Protein powder has all of 3g of carbs in it, peanut butter is basically just protein and natural fats, and the agave is better for keeping blood sugar stable instead of honey.

Still not good for diabetics Jody. From what I've read the agave industry is very UN-regulated and some are just as bad as corn syrup or honey. I'll stick to my pure stevia extract for a touch of sweet. I may try to incorporate it into your recipe....thanks.
