The Use of Stale Bread, Cake, and Leftover Cereal
Date Crumb Pudding
1 cup dried crumbs
1 pint hot milk
Let stand until milk is absorbed, then add
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup molasses
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup dates, cut small
1 egg
½ teaspoon mixed cloves, nutmeg, allspice, ginger
Mix ingredients. Bake 40 minutes in moderately hot oven. This pudding is so well flavored that it does not really require a sauce, but if one is desired the molasses sauce on page *86, or the hard or lemon sauce on page *87 will be found to suit.
