I am soaking my raisins right now!
I save the heels from the bread and when I have enough to fill a giant bowl, I make bread pudding. It's one of my favorites. I was lucky enough to have watched my Mom make it many times, and got her to write down the recipe when I was a kid. It's in her recipe box and every time I open it, the smells from my childhood and baking with my mother come rushing back out. During these trying times, with the economy going down the tubes, this is an excellent way to stretch dollars, and still have good food! 5 slices of bread, toasted, buttered and cut in half 1/2 c. raisins soaked in water until they swell Custard: 3c. milk, scalded 3 eggs 1/2 c. sugar 1/4 t. salt 1/2 t. vanilla extract Topping: 1/4 t. cinnamon 2 T. sugar Place 1/2 of toast in bowl. Top with raisins. Add rest of toast. Hand beat eggs, add slowly to scalded milk. Add sugar, salt and vanilla extract to mixture and beat well. Pour over toast and raisins and let stand for 10 minutes+/- Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until top is set. Top with cinnamon and sugar mixture and let stand until cool. Enjoy!!

Oooooh, that sounds so good, RW! Not sure I can wait 30-40 min. to eat it, though. *insert salivating smiley here*

Well, I have to tell you---THAT was good!
I made a huge bowl, all the crusts and rolls I had in the freezer! I tripled the recipe, added a lil cream to the milk, more sugar, more vanilla... It came out all golden brown on top with a lovely sugary crust and rivulets of custard all around the crust, the raisins were plump and sweet, just a marvel of warmth and golden goodness. I wish I lived near AMN so I could bring her some cause it's just love in a bowl and she could use that right about now. I ate a bowl for her.
