Because the starchy carb is oatmeal which digests slowly and on it's own does not spyke insulin levels as it is low glycemic it is acceptable, in addition the content of cinimon further steadies blood sugar that is why I recomended these. I would prefer not to eat anything other than a casein protein later at night, these are perfectly acceptable mid to late afternoon. In addition if you break it into two servings the cal count is only about 140, 26,carbs so it is not real high to begin with. So in short my answer is it is ok to eat.

Thanks, that makes sense. Now to refine the recipe -smaller pieces of
apple. Could you use raisins as well?
