1 cup of molasses
1 cup of milk

2 cups of bread crumbs
1 egg
1 cup of raisins
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup melted butter
1 tsp baking soda disolved in a little hot water

Moisten bread in a little water and squeeze out excess moisture.

Mix first 8 ingredients in bowl. Add melted butter and stir in soda last. Pour into greased mould. Cover and steam for 2 hours.

We had lots of steamed puddings when I was growing up. The Duff we had was made with a mixture of fruits and had a sauce of pouring custard. Now the only pudding we eat is the one I make and serve with brandied hard sauce for Christmas. YUM!
