Low-Carb Desserts

Here are some of my favorite desserts, which are low carb and sugar-free. You will see that I use nut flours (especially almond flour) and "liquid Splenda" a lot. Powdered Splenda can be substituted, but add the extra carbs into the count. Erythritol is often included in the chocolate recipes.

Here are Laura's most popular dessert recipes on the site.
Sugar-Free Lemon Curd
Delicious lemon curd recipe, without the sugar or carbs.
Microwave Apple Almond Dessert
For me, baked apple is a comfort food. Regular recipes are full of sugar and raisins. This is sort of a cross between baked apple and an individual apple crisp, but it's done in the microwave, so it isn't crispy. Sometimes I top it with yogurt, or mascarpone cheese mixed with the flavored sugar-free syrup.
Low Carb Chocolate Ganache (for Truffles or Sauce)
This sugar free low carb chocolate ganache can be used to make truffles or a chocolate sauce.
