Homemade sugar-free cinnamon streusel cake

Homemade sugar-free cinnamon streusel cake

If you enjoy eating cinnamon toast, or cinnamon buns, my sugar-free cinnamon streusel cake just might tempt you. It's a delightful homemade sugar-free white cake that has a yummy satisfying cinnamon streusel swirled into every bite and a homemade sugar-free white chocolate glaze puts the icing on the cake.

Ingredients for streusel:


  • 1-¼ cups of Splenda Brown Sugar Substitute

  • 6 tablespoons of flour

  • ½ cup of chopped almonds

  • ¾ teaspoon of cinnamon

  • ¾ cup of butter, softened

  • 2 tablespoons of sugar-free pancake syrup

  • ½ teaspoon of chili powder (optional)

Instructions to prepare the streusel: 


In a bowl, combine the Splenda Brown Sugar Substitute, flour, almonds, cinnamon, chili powder, and softened butter. Mix well, then add the sugar-free syrup; set aside.

Ingredients for the cake:

  • 1 cup of granulated white Splenda

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

  • 2 cups of Bisquick

  • ¼ cup of Greek yogurt

  • ¼ cup of butter, melted

  • 2 teaspoons of cinnamon

Instructions:

Begin by greasing and flouring a 9x13 inch cake pan. Set aside.


In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and white granulated Splenda together. Add the eggs, while mixing one egg at a time slowly. Stir in the Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and the pure vanilla extract. Add the Bisquick mix; blend well.



Now, pour the cake batter into the prepared 9x13 inch pan. Then sprinkle (only) half of the streusel mix over the cake batter. Using a spatula or a spoon, swirl the streusel mixture into the cake batter.



Bake in a 325 degrees F oven for twenty-five minutes, then take the cake out of the oven and sprinkle the remaining streusel mix over the top of the cake. Drizzle the 1/4 cup of melted butter on top of the cake.



Transfer the cake back to the oven and bake for five minutes longer. Remove the cake from the oven and place on a cooling pad, or rack. Allowing the cake to cool completely then continue making the white chocolate glaze icing.


White chocolate glaze

Ingredients:

Instructions:

In a microwave safe bowl, add the sugar-free white chocolate chips. Set it to twenty seconds and turn the microwave on. Stir the chocolate, add more time as needed.


When the white chocolate has melted, add the Splenda and the water. Stir with a whisk, or fork for a minute. If the glaze is too thick, add another teaspoon of water, and so forth, until the glaze is just slightly runny. Should the glaze need to thicken, add more Splenda and stir.



Next, swirl the white chocolate glaze over the top of the cinnamon streusel cake. 


Serve and enjoy!

Vegetables that contain protein

Vegetables that contain protein If food prices have you scrambling down the aisles of the grocery store trying to find something that's more affordable than meat but still has protein, know that you're not alone! Back in the days when my grandparents went through the Great Depression, it was really tough times, but they survived through the hardships by growing their own food. There are a lot of veggies that actually do contain protein, and they're packed full of additional nutrients that our bodies all need. Vegetables highest in protein: Vegetables high in protein include artichokes, asparagus, beans, bean sprouts, and beans in general: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, chickpeas, green peas, kale, mushrooms, mustard greens, spinach, sweet corn, and turnip greens. For a few examples: Black beans contain 15 grams of protein in just a 1-cup serving. In fact, a 1/2 cup of cooked beans provides close to 7 grams of protein, which is the same as eating one ounce of meat. As for collar...

Cook With Gin Lee

What's the difference between griddle cakes, pancakes, hot cakes, skillet cakes, and flapjacks? Have you ever pondered the question, what's the difference between griddle cakes, pancakes, hot cakes, skillet cakes, and flapjacks? Well, today, I would like to tell you the answer to that specific question. Which is that all five of these food items are exactly one and the same.  Homemade country pancakes I have decided to write two separate articles on the subject of how I make homemade pancakes from scratch. The first one was just to take you through the steps of how I make the pancake and waffle mix from scratch. Inside this article, I will be going more into depth on how I use that particular mix to make pancakes. In the other article, I also covered how to make homemade waffles from this same mix. The dry mix is the same for both, but needs to be prepared a little differently when adding the last few ingredients to make the waffle batter. (Hopefully splitting the t...

I tried Martha Stewart's slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies recipe- this is how they turned out There's one lady on this earth (besides mom) that I have always simply adored; Martha Stewart. Anyone who knows me knows that Martha has been my lifelong hero since I was a teenager. She's witty, beautiful, and exceptionally talented in so many various ways. Such as DIY home and land renovations to whipping up any tantalizing masterpiece in her kitchen.  Even though I have a multitude of recipes, I had never made  slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies  before. That's until I came across Martha Stewart's recipe for this delightfully delicious, gooey chocolate treat. I followed Martha's techniques and her recipe to the tee, and ooh-la-lah!

While some people may think that is too long to ...

Growing Vegetable Plants in Rockwool Cubes

Growing Vegetable Plants in Rockwool Cubes Hey there, fellow gardeners! Today we're going to talk about a cool way to grow your own vegetables using rockwool cubes. It may sound fancy, but it's actually pretty simple and fun. Let's dive in! What You'll Need: First things first, you'll need some rockwool cubes . These are like little sponges that help your plants grow strong and healthy. You'll also need some vegetable seeds, a tray to hold the cubes, and water. I personally use these hydroponic grow trays with dome lids. Step 1: Soak the Cubes Before you plant your seeds, you'll need to soak the rockwool cubes in water. This helps them absorb moisture and provides a good environment for your plants to grow. Step 2: Plant Your Seeds Once your cubes are nice and soaked, it's time to plant your seeds. Make a little hole in the top of each cube and drop a couple of seeds in. Some seeds are so tiny and I generally end up planting more than two in each cube. ...

Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking"

"Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking" In this article, I aim to shed light on my unconventional approach to cooking by explaining the reasons behind why I choose not to preheat my oven. While this may seem like a peculiar practice to some, I assure you that there are valid reasons behind it that I will explore in the following sections. Safety Considerations: Addressing concerns about food safety and doneness Ensuring proper internal temperature: Using a food thermometer One of the common concerns when it comes to skipping preheating is whether the food will cook evenly and reach a safe internal temperature. However, I have found that using a food thermometer effectively eliminates this concern. By inserting a thermometer in the thickest part of the dish, I can ensure that it reaches the recommended temperature for doneness. This method not only guarantees food safety but also prevents overcooking. Adhering to recommended cooking times for specific foods Another mi...

Pulled Pork

Posted: 07 Aug 2021 01:21 PM PDT Pulled Pork Pulled pork can be made from a pork shoulder roast or a Boston butt. Both cuts of meat come from the shoulder of the front legs of a hog. The pork shoulder (picnic roast) is the cut lower on the shoulder, and it includes the shank, whereas the Boston butt is the uppercut of the hog's shoulder.  If you caught my last article about dry rub seasoning a bone-in pork shoulder roast, this pulled pork is from that particular pork shoulder. I will add my list of spice ingredients again in this article for future reference. After applying the dry spices and marinating the pork shoulder for two hours, I then placed it in a large cast-iron skillet and slow-roasted it for one hour; before placing the pork shoulder in the crockpot.  The pork shoulder slowly cooked all night in the crockpot. Then early this morning I pulled the pork apart with two forks. The bone fell off the meat without any work. After the pork is shredded,...
