Ingredients
- 4 heaping Tbsp. of corn meal
- 1 egg
- Butter, the size of a walnut
- 1 qt. milk
- dash of salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup molasses
Directions
Scald the milk. Mix molasses and sugar and meal together. Moisten with a little of the milk. Stir this mixture slowly into hot milk. Stir constantly and cook. When thick, remove from stove and add the egg, well beaten, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. ginger. Pour into deep casserole dish and bake very slowly for 1 1/2 hours. Stir occasionally while baking. Two apples chopped fine and added before baking improves the flavor. Serve with cream.I wish I could be more specific about the particulars of the oven temperature and some of the measurements in these recipes. I remember these cooked on a wood stove and I know it would be in what was called a ""slow oven"". I haven't made this in several years, but suggest 325 degres. Watch carefully so as not to dry it out.
