Diabetic Sponge Recipes

This boozy, low-fat creamy Italian dish is lightly sweetened, with a hint of rich cocoa and a punch of coffee flavor.

This recipe is Diabetic friendly

This is from a DIABETIC COOKBOOK

A great light dessert, low in sugar and great for diabetics.

Absolutely delicious - a hit with everyone in our family, dieter, diabetic or not!

I swapped out the white sugar for SPLENDA to make it more diabetic-friendly.

These are the richest brownies I've ever made/tasted- no need for chocolate chips! This is a pantry raid goodie :)

Eggplant is perfect for the grill. Just a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Yummy!!! My favorite use of grilled eggplant is on a sandwhich. A grilled veggie sandwhich is about as good as it gets!!

This is a deliscious, fast breakfast recipe without surgar, but you wouldn't know it.

The traditional no-bake cookie w/o the chocolate and only half the sugar

While sugar may play a necessary role in some baked goods because of chemical reactions that result in the proper texture, rising, et cetera, quick breads are a wonderful category of sweets for which the complete substitution of a low-calorie sweetener such as Splenda is not only completely acceptable from a baking standpoint, but for taste as well.

Splenda is not truly calorie free; there are approximately 2 calories per teaspoon (compared to 15 calories per teaspoon of sugar!), so when utilizing in baked goods be sure to add 97 calories per cup of Splenda if you are concerned with accurate nutrition info. If you are not yet brave enough to try for a complete substitution, feel free to try the recipe with the Splenda Baking Blend (half sugar and half splenda), but it is worth trying the entire recipe with Splenda to see just how delicious "guiltless" baking can be!

This recipe is also included in the "guiltless" category because it is virtually fat free! The use of applesauce in quick breads in lieu of oil is not only heart healthy and MUCH lower in calorie (its use saves about 60 calories per half-inch slice!), but it results in a tender, sweet quickbread.

I've kept the whole eggs in this recipe instead of using an egg substitute or egg whites, as the caloric value difference is only about 5 calories per slice and I find that the yolks are a necessary binding ingredient. If you are concerned with cholesterol (and the recipe as written only has about 20 grams per slice) try it with egg whites or egg substitute (3/4 cup) and let us know how it goes!

I liked these. Steve was okay with them. Dressing is kind of tangy/mustardy.

Healthy- fibrous dessert, snack, or side dish- packed with vitamins and good for children and diabetics- good source of potassium.

This recipe was adapted from a diabetic cookbook. A very tasty way of including fruit and oats into your diet!

A delicious pumpkin pie that is also good for you! Great for diabetics and anyone else watching their sugar, starch and carbohydrate intakes.

Super easy, but of so comforting. It's low in sodium and diabetic friendly.

low fat, sugarless

If you like white chocolate, and you like strawberry shortcake you will love this. It's the most luscious, rich and creamy strawberry shortcake you'll ever make.

I took this to my book studies goody night and got rave reviews. One man said, Man, I never new eating diabetic, could taste so good!

I also think it holds together better, and taste better the second day. I like to leave it overnight in the fridge before cutting into it.

Chia seeds are supposed to be one of nature's super foods with 3100 mg of Omega-3 and 1050mg of Omega-6 and high in dietary fiber. They are recommended for diabetics. Although I am not diabetic, I use diabetic recipes for great low-carb choices. This recipe is modified from a dlife recipe. I only use Alaska wild caught salmon, and I drain it and remove the skin pieces so the numbers I've put in may not be totally accurate.

This is a light, crunchy "Chicken" Salad substitute that even the "non-dieters" in my family like a lot. We make it at least once a week. You can vary the ingredients to suit all the "bits and pieces" you have left over from salads. Fat-free mayo also works in this recipe. Freezing drained, raw tofu overnight before making this recipe changes the texture of the tofu and makes it "meatier" in this recipe.

Nobody believes this is made from 100% whole wheat bread. The secret is the three risings.

This turkey chili is very tasty. My husband doesn't like ground turkey, onions or celery, and he doesn't even know these ingredients are in the chili. He told me yesterday, "Wow honey, this is the best batch of chili you've ever made!" Little did he know it's a lower fat and more flavorful version of the beef dish I've made for years!

To keep this low-fat cake low-calorie, dust it lightly with powdered sugar or top with fresh fruit.

I'm not much of a baker, but this recipe, even I have not yet been able to flop.
