Here is the recipe....This came from an old cookbook that I have had for about 30 years
It is called Spices of the World Cookbook by McCormick (McCormick/Shilling spices)
Soak bread in milk for about 5 minutes. Add sugar, butter, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger. Pour slowly over eggs. Add vanilla and raisins..mix well. Pour into buttered 1 1/2 quart casserole or baking dish. Place that pan in a pan of hot water in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour or until a silver knife comes out clean when inserted into the center.
If you have made custard in the past, this is pretty much what the consistency is.
Usually I have to make a double batch because it doen't last long.
If you are usuing fresh raisins, great, if not, I just soak them in milk to plump them up..drain the milk off before using them.
Okay Crazy and Lasey--copied and pasted another recipe--the bread pudding plus Laseys idea of soaking the raisins in Amaretto. I will have to try this--never had bread pudding but sounds great! Thanks for posting the recipe here.
