 Comment:Use  all of your left over king cake to make another favorite dessert. By  substituting Splenda for sugar, you’ll cut down the calories and still have a  delicious bread pudding.
 Ingredients:4  cups king cake with icing, cut into ½-inch cubes
 3  cups evaporated skim milk
 ¾  cup egg substitute
 ½  cup granulated Splenda®
 ¼  cup apple sauce
 ¾  cup golden raisins
 3  tbsps pure vanilla extract
 ½  tsp cinnamon
 ¼  tsp nutmeg
 ⅛  tsp salt
 low  fat milk as needed (optional)
 Method:Preheat  oven 325°F. Grease a 9” x 9” baking dish and set aside. In  a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients, blending well to incorporate. NOTE:  You may wish to add low fat milk to create an extremely wet and juicy mixture  depending on the king cake used. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish and  bake uncovered for 1 to 1 hour 15 minutes or until lightly browned and set.  Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Pudding may be  reheated in microwave 2–3 minutes on high.
