BABKA, CINNAMON (LOW SUGAR, LOW CARBOHYDRATE)
Is it a a yeast cake or a sweet bread, which ever you decide I'm sure that you'll also decide that it's lovely - especially if you are diabetic. Please note that this recipe will not work with all whole wheat flour and you should plan to use it in a resonably short time. As it has so little fat it will dry quickly....of course, you can always toast and butter it.

Steps:
- Put sugar and yeast in 1/4 cup of warm water and set aside for 10 minutes or so.
- Heat 1 cup water in the microwave 1 minute. Add oil to water and maple flavoring.
- Put flour, sugar, salt into the processor. While machine is running, add eggs, water-oil and yeast mixture and run for 1-1/2 minutes. The dough is quite sticky and moist. Add apples and process just to mix.
- Pour and spread 1/2 of the dough into a sprayed 10" ring-form, bundt or springform. I used a 10" angel food pan with the loose bottom. Put half of the cinnamon- Splenda-cocoa mix on the dough. Put the rest of the dough on by spoonfuls and spread carefully. Top with the rest of the cinnamon-Splenda-cocoa mixture.
- Cover and let rise until it fills the pan. Maybe 1-1/12 hours. It rises faster than if it had lots of sugar in it.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven 45-50 minutes, until it is golden. Let cool in the pan 20 minutes and then promptly remove. The bottom can get soggy if you leave it in too long.
- Cool completely and serve. This cake freezes well.

CINNAMON BABKA
Steps:
- Cream the butter and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until they are creamy. Mix the yeast in warm water with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. When this thickens, add it to the egg yolks with the vanilla and salt.
- Combine the milk with the egg yolks and the creamed butter and sugar. Begin adding the flour until a soft dough is formed. Stir in the raisins until they are evenly distributed. Knead the dough until it is no longer sticky.
- Cover the dough and allow it to rise in a warm place until it doubles.
- Butter a 3-quart pan and shape the dough into it. Allow the dough to rise again for about 2 hours.
- For the topping, cream the cinnamon, sugar and butter, then mix in the egg, milk, and the flour. Coat the top of the dough with this topping and place in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 30 minutes.
