What is "NS food"?

leggup

Apple sauce has added sugar, most of the time. Almond milk has added sugar. Raisins have added sugar.

I've made banana-oat cookies before. Literally- bananas + oats + any seasoning you want (I used vanilla extract). No need to add applesauce and milk.

chickpea blondies - these do have added sugar in the form of honey/maple/agave and CHOCOLATE, but as others point out there is added sugar in most things unless you shop very carefully. I feel better about these because they have more fiber and protein than a 'normal' cookie bar, so they keep me fuller longer without denying the sweet tooth. These are also gluten free and can be tailored to vegan.
1 15oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed, ¼ c natural nut butter (peanut or almond, no sugar or salt added), 1/3 c honey (or maple syrup or agave nectar), 2 tsp vanilla, ¼ tsp baking soda, ¼ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp table salt, 1/3c plus 2 Tbs dark/semisweet chocolate chips, Coarse salt, for sprinkling
 Blend everything but the chocolate and coarse salt in a food processor until smooth. You may have to scrape down the sides halfway through. Mixture will be sticky.
 Stir in 1/3c chocolate chips, pour into prepared pan and top with remaining chocolate chips.
 Bake until edges just start to turn brown. They may look underdone, but you don’t want these to dry out!
 Cool on a wire rack 20 minutes BEFORE eating.
Makes 16 - best served warm - original recipe from ambitiouskitchen.com
...oh yeah, greased 8x8, 350F, 20-25 mins
Also along these lines are black bean brownies, but I haven't made them myself yet.
