No. It contains sugars naturally present in dates, even when no sugar has been added to the recipe. “No added sugar” describes how it is made; it does not mean the cookie has no sugars or cannot affect blood glucose.
Mash softened dates and mix them with flour and the recipe’s fat, egg, or other binding ingredients. Shape and bake the dough, adjusting the flour gradually because dates vary in moisture and can make the dough sticky.
It can. Dates contain naturally occurring sugars, and the flour adds carbohydrates, so the cookie may raise blood glucose despite having no added sugar. The effect varies with the portion and the rest of the meal.
Dates supply the sweetness. Their natural sugars become concentrated in the cookie, so the taste can be quite sweet without table sugar, syrup, or another sweetener being added.
Not automatically. Leaving out added sugar may suit some preferences, but these are still cookies and can contain flour and fat. Compare the ingredients and consider how the cookie fits into your usual eating pattern.
Yes. Let the cookies cool completely, then freeze them in a sealed container with layers separated so they do not stick together. Thaw at room temperature before serving, and do not refreeze them after thawing.
Keep fully cooled cookies in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate cookies made with a moist filling or ingredients that require chilling, and discard them if their smell or appearance changes.
They may have been baked too long, or the dates may not have added enough moisture to the dough. Soften and mash the dates well, and check the cookies before the end of the recipe’s baking time.
Recipes commonly combine dates with flour and a fat such as butter or oil; some also use egg or a raising agent. There is no single standard recipe, so ingredients and texture vary between homemade and shop-bought cookies.
They can provide carbohydrate before a workout, but their fat content may make them feel heavier than a simpler snack for some people. Try a small portion well before exercise rather than eating one immediately before training.

A No-added-sugar date cookie is a baked cookie sweetened with dates rather than added sugar. Recipes vary, but the dates are usually worked into the dough, lending it a mellow sweetness and a soft, sometimes chewy bite.
It makes an easy snack with tea or coffee, or a small homemade-style treat in a lunchbox. Dates contribute fibre, while the cookie is still fairly energy-dense, with much of its energy coming from carbohydrates and fat. “No added sugar” does not mean sugar-free, since dates contain naturally occurring sugars. For a lighter snack, enjoy one with plain yogurt or fresh fruit.
