could only find this one for a diabetic
Caramel Orange Flan
Ingredients:1/2 cup sweetener, divided
1 tablespoon water
3 eggs
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate thawed
1 (12 – ounce) can evaporated skimmed milk
1/2 cup skim milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions:Preheat oven to 300ºF, and in a heavy small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup sugar with the water, and cook over medium-low-heat until the sugar dissolves stirring frequently.
Increase heat and boil without stirring until sweetener turns deep golden brown, swirling the pan occasionally.
Immediately pour the caramel into six 6-ounce custard cups, and carefully tilt the cups slightly, covering as much of the bottoms (but not the sides) as possible.
Set the cups aside, and in large a bowl, whisk the eggs, orange juice concentrate, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Gradually whisk in both the milks and extracts, and divide the custard among the prepared cups, and place the cups in a large baking pan.
Add enough hot water to the pan to come halfway up the sides of the cups, and bake until the custards are set, about 80 minutes, and remove the cups from the water, and cover, and refrigerate overnight. Run a small, sharp knife around the custard sides to loosen.
Invert custard onto each plate, or eat inside the cup.

I see you already have a couple of recipes to try:) My husband is also diabetic, and I found that I can substitute Splenda for sugar in just about any dessert.... Cheesecake works beautifully, using sugar-free (storebought) cookies for a crust too

TX2stp is correct about the substitutions. Try also a new product sweetner substitute called CLABBER GIRL. It has 0 sugar as opposed to splenda but either will work in any recipe calling for sugar.
