Low Carb Zucchini Bread




This post is long overdue, I just haven't had much spare time lately. I love zucchini bread yet it's one of those foods I only make during the Holidays, I'm not sure why though. Zucchini is a very versatile veggie and only has about 2 net carbs per one cup chopped. This recipe is simple, very easy to whip up and tastes delicious! I hope you like it.

This recipe makes 16 servings with about 3.5 carbs per slice. You can reduce the carb count by using a zero carb sweetener.

Low Carb Tiramisu Cheesecake



Tiramisu has to be one of my all time favorite desserts! This recipe has all of the flavors from Tiramisu, but in a cheesecake, Yum! I used dark rum and instant coffee crystals to flavor this dessert, but you can use any liqueur you have in place of the rum. Kahlua is great as well. I hope you give this a try, I promise you won't be disappointed.

Low Carb Cake Doughnuts with Coconut Crumb Topping



Here they are as promised! If you like coconut these doughnuts are sure to please. They are quick and easy to whip up and the minis bake up in just a few short minutes. I used toasted unsweetened coconut for the topping. Yummy! I hope you enjoy these tasty little treats.

The carb count will vary depending on the sweetener you use. I used Xylitol, Splenda and molasses yielding 18 mini doughnuts with 2.75 carbs each.

Low Carb Chocolate Cake Doughnuts



I don't know about you, but I have really missed eating doughnuts! I have been working on a few doughnut recipes of my own and this one is really good. I was in heaven this morning, I finally had coffee and doughnuts again! I even bought this handy mini doughnut maker that cooks them in less than 3 minutes, it's awesome! I am working on a vanilla doughnut coated in coconut, I'll be posting that one soon too :)
