- Arrange half the sliced potatoes in the buttered pan. Cover potatoes evenly with the dried fruit. Top fruit layer with remaining potato slices.
- Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a separate bowl and pour over potatoes.
- Place pan of potatoes in a large baking pan (such as a 13 x 9-inch pan) and carefully pour 1/2 inch of boiling water in the the larger pan to create a water bath. Cover potatoes with foil and bake 40 minutes.
