This old-fashioned bread pudding can be made in the microwave so you don't have to turn on the oven. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 5 slices bread, white or wheat
- 2 tablespoons margarine or butter
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup sugar, white or brown
- 1/2 cup raisins

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Microwave method:
