      JenG, I am 73 and I remember our neighbor lady made it for our family when I was a young girl in Illinois. I seldom see this anywhere, like at a buffet, but I like it a lot. The recipe is simple. I don't buy white bread, I used by New York Rye. I don't think that would make a good bread pudding with NY rye? I like bread pudding and rice pudding. My mom made the best custard like rice pudding. No one makes it like she did.

      You can use half white bread and the other half raising bread and it will be a lot better

    Remember my childhood just after the war and bread and butter pudding and rice puddings were an absolute mouth watering treat. Thank you for the recipe. Was truly just thinking of it a day or two ago and wondering where to get her recipe. This is exactly as she made it. Thank you for bringing back such a wonderful memory

    I usually use sultanas not raisins, and sometimes I will spread the bread with marmalade as well as butter. Yummy.
