<snip> > - 3 tablespoons molasses>>>>>>>I increase this to 1 cup> Bistoury, thanks for posting the recipe. I know you said in your second post that "you don't have to add anything to the original recipe". I just wanted others, especially newbies, to be aware of what happens to the recipe when it's altered: I checked the nutritional info on my jar of molasses, and 1 tablespoon is 16 grams of carb. Taking into consideration the 3 tablespoons of molasses already in the original recipe, the altered recipe would increase by another 13 grams of carb *per serving* with the addition of a cup of molasses. This would be a total of 35g of carb per half-cup serving, or 31 net carbs after you subtract the fiber. That's a pretty hefty carb count for a diabetic. As originally written, though, the recipe comes in at a fairly respectable 18 grams of net carbs. That's doable for many of us (not for the low-carbers, though). Also, legumes in moderation may help keep BGs on an even keel. The original recipe sounds like a good one, and I'm going to try it. I'll try to trim the carb count even more by using Splenda instead of the brown sugar and only 2 tablespoons of molasses, plus my carb-free ketchup. I know there's brown sugar substitute available, but for me it leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. I figure two tablespoons of molasses will account for just 2g of carb per serving, and I can handle that. Karen Type 2 |

What are you talking about. There are only 21 carbs and 4 gr. of fibre.
That makes a really good food.

I really don't worry about carbs and eat what I want of them including
pastas and rice of all kinds. I also make my own bread. Couldn't live without my bread basket.

I fail to see how there can be only 21 g of carb if you are adding a cup of molasses. Beans are good. I eat them every day. I just can't eat the sweet ones any more. And I'm not a low carber! -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

If you will re-read the recipe I stated I add the additional molasses
and salt pork etc. The original recipe is 21 carbs. I even add a cup of real maple syrup and it makes no difference when I eat it.

I don't need to re-read it. I know what it said. And that serving that amounts to 21 g of carbs is about 1/3 a cup. You then add more sweetener and up the carb count more. -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

bistoury so far I have seen nothing wrong with your recipes.
personally I don't cook my own cake but see nothing wrong for me to have a 18 carb desert. some people may not beable to handle it but I surely can. don't worry about those who jump on your posts saying its high in carbs because as we all know or what we all should know is that different diabetics handle carbs differently. if you are bothered by such people just kill file them and continue to post. it is clear to see your recipes may not be for everyone. with 17 + million diabetics in the US alone the American Diabetes Association has to know something about diabetes. Tom don't care what diet you follow. > wrote in message link.net... > I really don't worry about carbs and eat what I want of them including > pastas and rice of all kinds. > I also make my own bread.

Thank you for your concern. We will be here for sometime and
continue to share these recipes and others that are from well known books for diabetcis. By the way we get no money for posting the name of a book. We are not connected with Amazon other than placing our own orders.
