OLD-FASHIONED BREAD PUDDING

2 cups milk or cream, room temperature

4 cups coarse or cubed bread crumbs*

1/4 cup butter

1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon or nutmeg**

1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Heat oven to 30 degrees. Put bread pieces into a buttered 1 1/2 quart casserole.

Mix remaining ingredients; pour over bread. Set casserole into a pan of hot water.

Bake about 1 hour until a silver knife inserted half way between the center and the

edge comes out clean. Remove casserole from water bath and let set for at least

15 minutes before serving. Or cool and refrigerate.

*Use a variety of leftover breads. Try donuts. Reduce the amount of sugar if breads

are sweet.

**Use 1 teaspoon cinnamon in the mix and sprinkle nutmeg over the top before

baking.
