Prune Pudding Recipe 2

Instructions

1. Soak dried prunes overnight.
2. Cook them for 2 to 3 hours, with a few slices of lemon added to give them flavor.
3. Drain, and save the juice separately.
4. Put the prunes through a colander to remove the pits, sweeten with sugar, if needed, and flavor with vanilla.
5. Trim the crust off thinly from a loaf of fruit bread, and cut into slices about half an inch thick.
6. Line a granite baking pan with the bread, pour over enough juice to soak up the bread, and cover with the prune pulp about 1/2 inch deep.
7. Repeat the process, leaving some of the prune pulp for the top.
8. Put into the oven until it is barely hot through, so it will set.
9. Cool, cut into squares, and serve with a teaspoon of whipped cream on top of each serving.
10. Prune Whip
11. 1/2 cup prune pulp
12. White of 1 egg
13. 1 tablespoon sugar

15. Prepare prunes the same as for prune pudding.
