Title: Spiced Apple Pudding
Categories: Diabetic, Desserts, Allergy, Low-fat/cal
Yield: 4 servings
2 c Unsweetened apple juice; 1/3 c Granulated sugar
substitute;
1/3 c Cornstarch; 1/2 ts Cinnamon;
1 Egg; (or 2 yolks)
MY NOTE: This recipe is marked in the allergy category only because
it is a pudding without milk, also low in protein. It is one of my
favorite ways to use up egg yolks or prepare a dessert when I’ve run
out of milk. Probably does not require as much sweetening as stated
in the recipe – start with 2 Tbsp. sweetener and add more if
necessary. Cost to make the whole recipe is around $1.22.
In a heavy saucepan, combine 1/2 cup apple juice and cornstarch; mix
well. Add remaining juice. Place over medium heat and cook,
stirring, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for
2 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a bowl, beat egg with a fork. Add 1/2 cup of hot mixture to
beaten egg. Stir until smooth. Return immediately to hot mixture,
stirring constantly. (The hot mixture will cook the egg.)
Stir in sweetener and cinnamon. Pour into 4 dessert dishes, cover
with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming. Cool to room
temperature or chill in refrigerator.

If you prefer to use real sugar, mix 2 TBSP with the apple juice in
the saucepan. Divide the cooked pudding into 6 small dishes so that
there is approx. 1 tsp sugar per serving if you are allowed this much
on your meal plan. 94 calories, 21 grams carbohydrate estimated.

Title: Canned Foods For Special Diets
Categories: Canning, Information
Yield: 1 servings
The cost of commercially canned special diet food often prompts interest
in preparing these products at home. Some low-sugar and low-salt foods
may be easily and safely canned at home. However the color, flavor and
texture of these foods may be different than expected and be less
acceptable.
CANNING WITHOUT SUGAR
In canning regular fruits without sugar, it is very important to select
fully ripe but firm fruits of the best quality. Prepare these as
described for hot-packs for each fruit, but use water or regular
unsweetened fruit juices instead of sugar syrup. (For more information
see additional publications for individual fruits.) Juice made from the
fruit being canned is best. Blends of unsweetened apple, pineapple, and
white grape juice are also good for filling over solid fruit pieces.
Adjust headspaces and lids and use the processing recommendations given
for regular fruits. Add sugar substitutes, if desired, when serving.
CANNING WITHOUT SALT (REDUCED SODIUM)
To can tomatoes, vegetables, meats, poultry, and seafood, follow the
normal procedures for canning, but omit the salt. In these products,
salt seasons the food but is not necessary to ensure its safety. Add
salt substitutes, if desired, when serving.
