Let's just get this out of the way.
I'm sorry, OK?
I can't monitor everyone's caloric intake. I can't slap your hand when you reach for that warm maple-glazed donut, I can't pin you down and stop you from methodically devouring, piece by piece, the leftover Halloween candy. I can't grab the steering wheel and guide you safely out of the "We'll Fry Anything" drive-thru lane.
No, I can't do this. I am way too busy slapping, pinning down, and steering myself. Fooling with the rest of you would just be asking too much.
So don't even think of blaming me for posting this recipe.
Although if we look at things logically (which I hate doing) it would, I suppose, technically be my fault.
But, you're really going to like this.
It will make you so happy you won't even care when you slowly slip into a sugar and butter-induced catatonic state.
A State where everyone wears stretchy pants!
A State where scales are just something that you get on your legs in cold weather!
A State where Paula Deen is governor, and skinny women are extradited for their crimes, by golly!

Cinnamon Apple Bread Pudding
From Lu's Kitchen
12 large cinnamon rolls (I bought mine individually wrapped at Sam's)
2 c. applesauce
4 eggs
2 c. whipping cream
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk
additional milk (if needed)From Lu's Kitchen
12 large cinnamon rolls (I bought mine individually wrapped at Sam's)
2 c. applesauce
4 eggs
2 c. whipping cream
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk
¼ c. sugar
½ t. salt
1 t. vanilla
1/3 cup butter
Break the cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces, and let sit overnight in a large bowl loosely covered with a kitchen towel. This dries out the cinnamon rolls and will help them absorb the liquid.
Mix the applesauce, the eggs, whipping cream, milk, sugar, salt and vanilla. Place the cinnamon rolls in a greased 13 x 9 baking dish, and pour the liquid mixture over the cinnamon rolls. Make sure all cinnamon roll pieces are covered with liquid. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Dot the top with butter (or melt butter and drizzle over the top). Bake at 350ยบ for 35-45 minutes, just until light golden brown.
Serve hot, with sauce.
Mmmmmmmm...........
Sauce
1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
½ c. butter
1 T. light corn syrup
1 t. vanilla
1 T. grated orange zest
Cook brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, pecans, and orange zest. Pour over bread pudding.

Love the Paula Deen idea! Several years (decades?) ago, I made bread pudding using cinnamon rolls. Very easy recipe, but it had way too much sugar. Glad to see your recipe has very little added sugar.
You are so funny. I really enjoy your blog.
