 :) Hang on to yer colesterol levels, this is definitely Not for the light hearted  :o

Use you own judgement with amounts, Mum's 83...... 8)

Bread (must be stale Not mouldy though :D)
Beef Dripping (Butchers Dripping, softened)
Currants & Sultanas
Mixed spice
Water

Soak bread thoroughly in water, leave to absorb.  
Squeeze water out of the bread, place in mixing bowl.
Add the softened dripping and mix with yer hands like a dough. Add in your fruit & mixed spice (heavy on the mixed spice  ;))

The mixture should ( :-\) look like a good rich fruit bread mix.  Spread into baking tray, cook on Gas mark 4/5 for approx 1 1/2 hours (depending on the size)  don't try & cook at a higher mark as the outside will burn & the centre will remain uncooked  8)

Anyone brave enough!! LOL :D 8) ;) I'm gonna give it a try this week, hope it turns out like my Mum's yummy  :)

PS: I was thinking about the sugar & just phoned my Mum to check, she said she sprinkles sugar over the top when it comes out of the oven after it's finished cooking  :)

Well I made the bread and butter pudding as per the receipe I posted earlier and it was yummy - there is a small amount left which I will eat cold tomorrow.  It makes enough for 4 but hubby didn't want any (good all the more for me).

so what do you have with this?  Do you eat it on it's own or serve with custard or what?

 :)Me too Carlan, the only thing is the bread does'nt last long enough in ours to go stale, does anyone know if you could buy the big loaves on the whoopsy counter or does it have to be sliced bread, ;)

The bread doesn't have to be sliced, but if you slice it yourself don't cut doorsteps!!  I don't actually use bread I either make it with brioche (use a loaf not the rolls) or your can make it with Soreen, in which case do not put fruit in.

jefs recipe for bread pudding (as opposed to all the others for 'bread and butter pudding'),
is even nicer if you sprinkle it with sugar before baking.

Bread and butter pudding is lovely made with left over panettone too!

(i'm on the see food diet obviously!)
