OI just tried my hand at baking with phase 2 in mind and I'm wondering if this will be acceptable. They are so moist and delicious.
I adapted a laurainthekitchen recipe, substituting sugar for splenda, flour for carbquick, cream for milk and raspberry preserve for non sugar added and added xanthan gum... the frosting was smooth until I added the raspberry, but it's still presentable (I only used 1/2 of the frosting.
Ingredients:
1 Cup Splenda
1 Stick Un-Salted Butter, softened
2 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 tsp Baking Powder
1/8 tsp Salt
1/8 xanthan gum
1 1/3 Cups Carbquick
1/3 Cup 10% cream
For the Frosting:
1 Stick of Unsalted Butter, softened
½ cup no sugar added Raspberry Preserves
½ tsp Vanilla Extract
3 cups Splenda
Fresh Raspberries, for garnishing
my quick calcs indicate that these would have 12-15 grams of fat each, and we are supposed to be at 6 grams of fat or less. If you cut the butter in half (and change to canola) and used almond milk instead of cream - youd get there.
