MAPLE-APPLE MICROWAVE BREAD PUDDING

One at a time, microwave each mug until the pudding is puffed up and firm, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Pour the rest of the maple syrup over the top of the bread puddings before serving.
BREAD PUDDING IN THE MICROWAVE
I have no idea where I got this recipe, but it is handwritten in a small book where I saved recipes back in the mid-80s. I haven't made this in ages, but I do recall I used to make it a lot. I think I will make it again today! :-) Ordinary sandwich bread works fine, or use a spiffier bread to make a spiffier pudding. Serve with a vanilla custard sauce, whipped cream, or even ice cream.
