This king cake recipe is so easy to make and tastes delicious served with a cup of coffee in the morning. 3 tablespoons milk more if needed but stir this amount first, you’ll be surprised how far this goes!
The King Cake is used in a religious tradition passed down from French influence in southern Louisiana. The ring of colorfully iced pastry is made of sweet bread served mainly on Epiphany until the day after Mardi Gras. Epiphany is a holiday honoring the event when the kings, or wise men, brought gifts to Jesus.
It’s so easy to make colored sugar at home. Just place white sugar with a few drops of food coloring in an airtight container and shake to combine. I really do recommend buying the lemon extract though because that little hint of lemon just makes this recipe. Use lemon juice if you’re in a pinch! Where did the king cake tradition come from?
You can store your king cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week or in the freezer for one week. You’re going to need an obscene amount of sprinkles if you want to make this into a king cake. But as I said, I’ll be making it again and again without the sprinkles so if you want to leave them off go for it.
