As anyone knows, diabetics have to watch their intake of food and what the ingredients possess. NO SUGAR? Well you have to have a little sugar to sustain this way of eating. So let's start with a simple Banana cake.
2 bananas mashed
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 stick or about 1/2 cup I Can't Believe it's Not Butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup of Splenda or sugar substitute
1/4 c buttermilk
1/4 c applesauce-unsweetened
Mix mashed bananas with lemon juice and set aside. Sift flour, add salt, soda, and baking powder. Cream butter, sugar, and eggs. Add flour mixture alternately with bananas and buttermilk into creamed mixture. Then add applesauce and mix well. Add chopped nuts if you prefer.
Bake in a greased and floured loaf pan or a 13" by 9" baking pan. Cook at 350 degrees for about 1 hour. Cool and top with unsweetened whipped topping or sugar-free ice cream.
My family like this cooked as muffins and eat as finger food.
