Royal Children's Puddings

Slice a penny loaf, and pour upon it a pint and a half of boiling milk. Let it stand till soft, then beat it lightly with a fork, and add a heaped table-spoonful of moist sugar, a little grated nutmeg or any other flavouring, and four well-beaten eggs. Half fill some small buttered tea-cups with the mixture, and bake the puddings in a well-heated oven. If liked, a slice of butter may be added but its absence will render the puddings more digestible. Time to bake, twenty minutes. Probable cost, 1s. Sufficient for five or six persons.
