I had no idea you could bake with Splenda. Would it be possible to substitute stevia?
Guru-C:
Stevia is also a great sweetener, especially in smoothies. Just remember to use less of it, as it has more sweetening power per measurement than sugar or Splenda do.
Wonderful recipes, I do rather like banana bread :)
They look great, the Cranberry Orange Bread in particular looks very interesting.
