There doesn't seem to be your standard English-type baked charlotte- 
type bread/custard pudding, but in Book VI, which contains mostly  
dishes for the sick, there are several pap-like dishes such as  
sweetened breadcrumb mush with almond milk, as well as several recipes  
for stewed fruit served on sops.

I'm on my way out the door or I'd go into more detail...
