I grew up on strawberry shortcake. My dad had the best recipe for diabetic friendly strawberry shortcake that I have ever eaten. This recipe is so simple. There is no added sugar. The shortcake is nothing more than a biscuit covered in mashed strawberries in artificial sweetener, and topped with whipped cream.Here is my recipe for diabetic friendly strawberry shortcake:
This recipe is so simple. I use Bisquick to make the biscuits. Make however many biscuits as you want, and follow the directions on the box. Do not add any sugar to the biscuits. I find that Bisquick makes the best of all biscuit recipes that I have ever tried.
Prepare washed fresh strawberries by taking the green tops off them and place them in a bowl. Add 1 cup of Splenda (If you are not diabetic and want to use sugar you may). Mash the strawberries with a potato masher, so that the juice comes out of the strawberries. Now add a small amount of red sugar free strawberry syrup if desired.
Now split the biscuits in half and pour the strawberries onto the biscuits and top with sugar free whipped cream if desired. What is strawberry shortcake without whipped cream? You will love it whether you are diabetic or not.
Here is my diabetic recipe for whipped cream:
1 cup of heavy cream
1 teaspoon of vanilla
2 teaspoons of Splenda
Whip this mixture with an electric mixer for about 3 or 4 minutes, or until the whipped cream is nice and fluffy.
Enjoy!
