Indian Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 quart milk
1 cup cornmeal
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup molasses
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3 eggs or 3 tablespoons egg substitute
1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325\u00b0F
Bring milk to a boil and slowly sprinkle in the cornmeal, stirring with a wire whisk to keep it smooth. Lower the heat and cook until mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients, except the eggs, and allow the mixture to cool slightly. Blend in the lightly beaten eggs and pour the pudding into a greased 2-quart baking dish.
Bake 45 minutes to an hour, or until pudding is firm. Serve warm or cold.
