1 piece (medium) of Date cookie (no sugar) (30 g) has 102 calories. That works out to 340 calories per 100 g. It contains 19.8 g of carbs, 1.3 g of protein, 2.3 g of fat and 2 g of fiber. Its 0.1 mg of Copper covers 6% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 55 (medium), so it raises blood sugar at a moderate pace.
A date cookie with no added sugar is a sweet baked treat that gets much of its sweetness from dates rather than table sugar. Recipes vary, and the dough may be made with different pantry staples, but dates give the cookie its characteristic fruity flavour and often a pleasantly tender bite.
It works as a snack with tea or coffee, or as a small sweet after a meal. Its nutritional profile is mainly carbohydrate, with some fibre; dates make it naturally sweet, but it is still a treat rather than a low-carbohydrate snack. Enjoy one alongside plain yoghurt or a hot drink when you want a modest portion.

No. “No sugar” usually means no sugar was added; dates still contain naturally occurring sugars, which remain in the cookie. The wording does not mean the cookie contains no sugar or has negligible carbohydrates.
Blend or mash pitted, soft dates, then mix them with oats or flour and the other ingredients in your recipe. Shape the dough and bake until set. Let the cookies cool on the tray so they firm up without crumbling.
They can be a way to avoid added sugar, but dates still contribute natural sugars and the rest of the recipe matters. This cookie is classified as processed; making it at home lets you choose the ingredients and preparation.
Yes, they can: the natural sugars in dates and the cookie’s carbohydrates can raise blood glucose. If you have diabetes, consider how a portion affects your readings and ask your doctor or dietitian how it fits your individual plan.
Soft, fleshy dates are easiest to mash and help keep no-sugar date cookies moist. If your dates are dry, soften them before blending; remove the pits and adjust the dough if the dates make it especially wet.
No-sugar date cookies can turn dry when the dates are too dry or the dough has too little moisture, and overbaking makes the problem worse. Soften dry dates, add liquid gradually if needed, and let the cookies cool before moving them.
Once completely cool, keep no-sugar date cookies in an airtight container. Homemade cookies can spoil sooner in a warm, damp place; discard them if you notice mold, an off smell, or an unusual sticky texture.
Yes. Cool the no-sugar date cookies completely, then freeze them in a sealed container with baking paper between layers to prevent sticking. Thaw them at room temperature before serving.
It depends on the recipe. No-sugar date cookies may use oats or flour, and some recipes include eggs while others do not. Check the ingredient list for packaged cookies, or follow the specific recipe if baking at home.
Yes, if the cookie’s texture and size are suitable for the child’s age and chewing ability. Dates can make no-sugar date cookies sticky and chewy, so offer an age-appropriate piece and supervise young children while they eat.
