Taken from my "Cotton Country Collection" cookbook that I got in 1984 as a wedding present.. I have made this very simple bread pudding more times than I can count.. it's great for those who don't really like the rum or raisins in traditional bread pudding.

    This makes approximately 4 portions (depending on the size of your portions). I generally will double all ingredients and use a 9x13 pan so we'll have extra!
