BREAD PUDDING

This is a real old fashioned bread pudding and if you follow the recipe it will be really scrumptious.

1 Large stale loaf
4ozs of margarine
1½ teaspoons of spice
1 teaspoon of nutmeg
8 ozs. of sugar
1½ lb. of fruit
A little self raising flour

You put the large loaf to soak in cold water until it is soft enough to squeeze together.

Put it in a large bowl and squeeze the margarine into it. Add the sugar, spices and fruit. mixing it all with your hands. Add a little flour to bind it. You don't need any eggs or milk.

Fill a deep bun tin, as it will not rise and cook in a moderate oven for 1½ to 2 hours.

Leave it to get cold then cut in slices and enjoy it.
