My husband loves sweets. We all do, but last year he was diagnosed diabetic. I wanted to continue to make the food he & I love. So I started experimenting with the recipes I had making them more diabetic friendly. Here is one of our favorite.
Pumpkin-Zucchini Bread
(low sugar & whole wheat)
Sift together
1 ¾ cup wheat flour
½ tsp. baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Cream together
½ cup sugar
¾ cup splenda
1/3 cup butter
2 eggs
1 cup pumpkin
1 ½ cup zucchini
1/3 cup milk (or soy milk)
1 tsp vanilla
Mix together both the dry mixture & the wet ingredients together.
Add 1 cup raisins
Put in a greased pie plate & bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

That looks delicious … and completely off-limits for a celiac like me
Hope you enjoy!

That makes me very, very hungry! I need to work this out on the PPV for Weight Watchers and see if I can indulge… Thanks for sharing – it looks delish!
