Default bread pudding

I haven't posted for awhile, my life is unsettled. Both my husband and I
are T2. I am more inclined to attempt to rein in my sweet tooth, he still
likes his unfettered and demanding. So I'm always on the lookout for ideas
for dessert.

I've tried Splenda's cheesecake recipie with good results, and today came up
with this:

2 cups dried bread crumbs - I had a mixture of whole grain and white crumbs
in the freezer which I made from the dry ends of loaves of bread and just
kept for "whenever"
1/4 c melted butter
2 eggs
2 cups plain unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup Splenda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup of add-ins consisting of some diced cranberries, some dried
blueberries, some dried cherries, and some diced walnuts. The berries were
just the amounts left over from other various projects

I put the bread crumbs in a small greased pyrex dish, added the butter and
stirred it up.

I beat the eggs, added the almond milk, the Splenda and the spices and beat
them well together, then stirred in the fruit and nuts and poured the
mixture over the bread crumbs.

Baked it for 1 hr 10 min at 325 degrees.

It's pretty good, and the sweet tooth guy liked it! I figure a half cup
serving is one carb, more or less.

Happy New Year, everyone!
