12 homemade biscuits, crumbled or broken up in pieces
4 slices bread (any kind you like)
2 c. milk (whole or skim)
1 c. sugar (less if you like)
3 eggs, well beaten
1/4 c. butter, softened
1 tbsp. vanilla (optional)
1 tsp. either cinnamon, nutmeg, or allspice
Raisins (optional)

You can put 1 teaspoon of all three in if you like the taste.

In a large bowl, put milk and tear up the bread in small pieces, mixing well. (I sometimes just squash it up in the milk by hand.) Then add sugar, eggs, vanilla, butter, seasonings; mix well. Finally add the biscuits. The mixture will be kind of thick and you may need to mix by hand. Add raisins; mix well. Cook in round or square well-greased iron skillet at 350 degrees for approximately 45 minutes.
