Old Fashioned Bread Pudding
3 cups bread crumbs ( as above)
2 cups milk
¼ cup butter
½ cup sugar
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp. cinnamon or nutmeg( I prefer cinnamon)
2 eggs, slightly beaten
½ cup raisins
Place bread crumbs in 1 ½ qt. greased baking dish. For firmer pudding use an extra cup of bread crumbs.
Scald milk with butter; add sugar, salt and spices and mix well. Pour over bread mixture. Sprinkle with raisins. (n I think I mix them in a bit)
Place baking dish ina pan of hot water 1” deep. Bake 40- 45 min. at 350◦F oven. When it’s done a knife inserted in centre will come out clean.. usually takes longer..
Serve warm with ice cream…
