Helpful Tips and FAQs
Substitutions for Recipe Ingredients
Sweetener
I use Splenda granulated whenever possible as it does not negatively impact my blood sugar. I find that sweeteners that contain sugar alcohols cause my blood sugar to rise. If this is not a concern for you or you have a preferred sweetener, by all means, make substitutions that suit your preferences and dietary needs. Keep in mind that substituting the sweetener may change the overall nutritional information.
Pumpkin Pie Spice
To make pumpkin pie spice, combine 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon half a teaspoon of ground ginger and half a teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Mix it together and measure and use. This may not taste exactly like the store-bought pumpkin pie spice but it is close enough to replicate the same flavour.
Pumpkin Puree
If If you don’t have pumpkin puree you can easily make your own. Do not use pumpkin pie filling as it contains sugar which makes it high in carbs. To make your own pumpkin purée, steam or bake a pumpkin that has been seeded and sliced. Peel off the outer skin and then pulse the inner pumpkin in a food processor or blender. Discard the skin.
Heavy Cream
If you do not have heavy cream, you can make your own by combining milk and butter. Whisk together about half a cup of whole milk and a quarter of a cup of melted butter. You will need to whisk it well to get it to combine. If you do not have whole milk, you may need to add more butter to compensate for the fat content.
Another alternative would be coconut cream. You can substitute it on a one-to-one basis.
One final alternative that I have used in the past is combining milk and cornstarch. Add about 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to half a cup of milk. I use an immersion blender to get it to mix very well. Always keep in mind that any alterations or substitutions will affect the nutritional information of your completed recipe.
Ratio Keto Granola
if you don’t have Ratio Keto Granola, you could substitute it with a Catalina Crunch brand of keto, granola or another brand of keto granola. If you prefer something totally different, you could make a crumble by combining almond flour, Splenda granulated sweetener, some Walden Farms, syrup, pecan flour, and a small amount of oats.
This will, of course, change the nutritional information per serving.
Walden Farms Pancake Syrup
An alternative to Walden Farms syrup would be to use a sugar-free syrup that is similar. I use Walden Farms because it has the right consistency and is zero calories, zero carbs and zero fat. That makes it a great addition to diabetic-friendly recipes.
