It is a Sunday night, all my chores are done and I am ready to bake. The problem is I am about 5 pounds more then what I was last year and my summer clothes are fitting just a little too snug. What is a Baker Babe to do? Instead of forgoing a baking adventure, I decided to focus on finding something sugar free (and planning to give away all of the leftovers). I have been meaning to highlight something for my diabetic friends, so I went searching on the web. It took me over an hour to find a recipe that I liked (and that I had all the ingredients for). I settled on this Banana-Nut Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze from www.childrenwithdiabetes.com. The bonus is that I also get to use my new silicone Bundt pan that I got from my birthday. So the result....not to shabby. The cake come out very similar to a banana bread that you wouldn't even notice was missing sugar. However I was not a big fan of the Cream Cheese frosting. Maybe it is my hard core addiction to sugar, but I say if you can sugar it, do it. I will leave the final taste test for this recipe up to my diabetic friend who's taste buds will be a much wiser judge. Enjoy!
