I’m usually not a fan of ginger, and know it’s not the season for it, but I just can’t resist a recipe that I actually have most of the ingredients for! This one is from Wholesome Yum, quick and easy to make and with 6g total carbs each I think it’s a winner 🙂 2 cups Almond…… Continue reading Low carb gingerbread

I came across this low carb version of this Italian chocolate chip sponge on a diabetes forum so thought I’d give it a whirl! It came out with a slight crust and a tad overcooked, so I would recommended checking at 45mins 110 g butter, softened 120 g cream cheese 5 eggs, medium size 185…… Continue reading Stracciatella cake

I’m not sure if it’s my addition of chocolate chips (they needed to be used up, ok?) or inaccurate measurements, but…… Continue reading Gooey brownie pudding
