Low Carb Gingerbread

Low Carb GingerbreadLow Carb Gingerbread. I’d been thinking about this low carb gingerbread recipe for a while, finally decided to try it, and success is so sweet.  Over the last 4 years my tastes for sweet stuff has diminished in that it doesn’t take as much for something to taste sweet to me so if you think this needs to be a bit sweeter add a little more.  A dollop of whipped cream and you’re good to go.  Wanna see what happened one time when I under-cooked a recipe of this gingerbread?  Not always, but most of the time, I can make lemonade out of lemons.  I ended up with what are now Gingerbread Waffles with a fabulous gingerbread pudding to boot which only goes to show, don’t be afraid of failure in the kitchen because there can often times be success right around the corner.
