My father-in-law is diabetic. Here are a couple of good recipes I make.

Diabetic Raspberry Crunch Brownies
(from Rita Winterberger-Taste of Home)
1/4 cup oil 1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup sugar 2/3 cup baking cocoa
4 egg whites 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup flour 1/4 raspberry jam (can use sugar-free)
1/2 tsp baking powder 2 Tbsp Grape-Nuts cereal

In a mixing bowl, beat oil and sugar. Add egg whites and continue beating until well mixed. Combine flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa. Add to egg white mixture and beat until moistened. Stir in vanilla. Batter will be thick
Spread batter into a 9-in square baking pan with a nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 350degreesF for approximately 18-20 minutes (don't overbake) or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes on a wire rack. Spread with jam and sprinkle with Grape-Nuts. Cool completely.

Note: One brownie has 105 cal, 3g fat, 19g carbs, 2g protein (1 starch and 1/2 fat exchanges).
