1 cup Splenda
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice
2 Tbs fresh squeezed lime juice
2 tsp grated lemon zest
1 tsp grated lime zest
3 eggs, separated
1 cup milk (Almond Breeze is OK, but not Soy Milk)
1 Tbs melted butter

Combine the Splenda, flour, and salt in a mixing bowl and stir in the juices, zest, egg yolks, milk, and butter.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Fold into the lemon mixture and pour into a greased 6-cup bowl or soufflé dish.
Place in the slow cooker and add enough water to come 1 inch up the side of the bowl.
Cover and cook on high heat for 2 to 3 hours, until the top is light and fluffy and set.
Alternately, place in a bain marie and bake in a preheated 350F oven for 30 minutes.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Serves 6.
