Preheat oven to 325
4 Eggs-beaten
2 C. Milk
1/3 C. Sugar
1/2 Tsp. Ground Cinnamon
1/2 Tsp. Vanilla
3 C. (4 slices) dry Bread Cubes

*************************

In a mixing bowl, beat first 5 ingredients
Place dry bread cubes in an 8 x 11 x 2 baking dish. Sprinkle raisins
or dried fruit over bread, pour egg mixture over all.
Bake in 325 degree oven for 35-40 minutes or until knife
inserted near center comes out clean. Cool slightly.
NOTE: You can dry bread cubes by baking them in a
300 degree oven for 15 min. or cut toasted bread in cubes
This does not call for putting baking dish in water bath but I do.
