Flavoring extracts are an excellent way to add flavor to diabetic dessert recipes. While diabetic dessert recipes can sometimes taste bland or metallic due to the sugar substitutes in them, if you bake using a flavoring extract you can go a long way towards making up the taste. Use strong flavoring extracts like almond flavoring and your diabetic dessert recipes will taste more like the real thing.
For example, you can bake a simple cookie using ¾ of a cup of egg whites, ¼ a teaspoon cream of tartar, ¼ of a cup of Splenda, ¾ of a cup of shredded unsweetened coconut, and one teaspoon of almond flavoring. Beat the egg whites until they're stiff and then slowly add all the other ingredients. Drop the mixture on a greased cookie tray and bake for 30 minutes at 300 degrees, then let the cookies cool overnight. If almond flavoring isn't your favorite flavoring extract, you can substitute other flavoring extracts like coconut flavoring, maple flavoring, vanilla extract or lemon extract. Using peppermint extract is especially great around holiday time, and you can use a couple drops of food coloring to turn the cookies red or green.
Another great diabetic dessert recipe is chocolate cream pie. Take an ordinary chocolate cream pie recipe and substitute Splenda for whatever sugar is called for (directions for converting amounts are on the package). When you're baking the crust, substitute two thirds of the flour called for in the recipe with whole rolled oats. (They're healthier than white flour for diabetics and they also add a great texture.) Add one of your favorite flavoring extracts (vanilla or orange go best with this recipe) and you've got a dessert that will win a bake-off.
Flavoring extracts can also add excitement to everyday dishes for diabetics. If you're making pancakes, a little maple flavoring, black walnut flavoring, or coconut flavoring will make them taste better. Make sure to double your recipes because your non-diabetic friends will taste them and prefer them to the regular versions!
French toast is another great diabetic recipe that can be improved using flavoring extracts. For example, Rawleigh makes an outstanding vanilla, butter and nut flavoring that will more than make up for any lack of sugar in your French toast. Whatever your favorite flavoring extracts are, using them will help counteract monotony in diabetic desserts.
Rawleigh Products was founded in the late 1800s to create a line of "Good Health Products" that possessed both strength and quality.
