RECIPE: Sugar-Free Cupcakes

With The Great British Bake Off on the horizon baking is on my mind but with trying to cut out my sugar intake this can sometimes be hard to create that tasty bake! Even Prue Leith has been commenting about the fact they need some healthier recipes on The Great British Bake Off....have there ever been any?! We all need to satisfy that sweet tooth but you do not need to compromise on health or taste.

So for my latest easy recipe I have created some healthy sugar free cupcakes using Splenda new sugar-free recipes. Splenda, the sugar alternative is not only a low calorie alternative to sugar but it’s made from sucralose so everyone can enjoy my sweet bake. 

The recipes from Splenda are super quick, the sugar-free cupcakes only taking 10 mins to prepare, so of course I love them even before I have tasted them!

INGREDIENTS:

·         16g SPLENDA  Sugar Alternative, Granulated

·         125g low fat spread
