Moodys Indian Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Grease a shallow 2- to 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter.
• For the pudding: In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and butter, and warm over low heat until the butter melts. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk a little of the milk-butter mixture with the molasses; whisk this into the cornmeal mixture. Add all of the cornmeal mixture to the saucepan and whisk until the ingredients are fully integrated. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Whisk the eggs in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in some of the cornmeal mixture to temper the eggs. Pour everything back into the saucepan and gently whisk in the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and raisins. Empty the saucepan into the prepared baking dish and bake until the pudding looks like a slightly moist cornbread or a steamed pudding, 2 hours.
• For the apples: Cut each of the apples into 8 to 10 equal-sized wedges. Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the apples and stir to coat. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon from time to time, until the apples are tender and yield slightly when pierced with a knife tip. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice and ginger, and stir to blend. Keep warm while the pudding cooks.
• Once the pudding is cooked, set it aside to cool. Top with the apples and serve with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Spray a 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pudding mix, corn muffin mix, and 3 cups of milk until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes; set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. Stir into pudding mixture until well combined. Transfer to slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour. Turn slow cooker to low and stir. Cover and continue cooking for 1 more hour. Stir, cover and cook for 1 hour more.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Butter a 2 quart casserole. In a saucepan, combine 3 cups of milk and the maple syrup over medium heat. Heat until just boiling and add butter. In separate bowl, combine cornmeal, ginger and allspice. Gradually stir cornmeal mixture into hot milk. Reduce heat to low and cook until thickened. Fold in cranberries or cherries. Spoon mixture into casserole and pour remaining milk over top of pudding...DO NOT STIR...bake for 2 1/2 hours or until milk has been absorbed and top is golden brown. Serve warm with a coulis of blackberry, cranberry or apricot and a dollop of honey-sweetened whipped cream.;

Steps:

• Pour 4 cups hot milk into the top of a double boiler and place over simmering water. Slowly stir cornmeal into milk and cook until thickened, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart round baking dish.
• Whisk maple syrup, brown sugar, molasses, eggs, melted butter, salt, ginger, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Stir maple syrup mixture into cornmeal-milk mixture until thoroughly combined; pour into prepared baking dish. Pour 1/2 cup cold milk over top of pudding.
• Bake until set but still slightly quivery on top, about 2 hours. Let stand 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Using a non stick (or heavy bottomed) sauce pan add milk and heat on medium heat until nearly bubbling at the edges and steaming.
• Slowly whisk in the meal and whisk slowly until the meal is suspended in the milk, meaning none hanging out at the bottom of the pot. Continue whisking off and on until it reaches a medium thick hot cereal consistency. Again you *can* walk away and whisk every 5 minutes or so.
• Turn stove to low heat and continue to whisk off and on while it thickens. No need to be afraid. I have left it unattended for over 10 minutes and it will not scorch, lump or stick.
• When it reaches 'thick hot cereal' stage, stir in remaining ingredients. I usually whisk. Mix well to combine evenly.
• Leave pudding on low, stirring/whisking occasionally until thickened a bit more; 10-15 minutes approximately.
• Turn off heat and let the pan sit until it has cooled down half way, then cover with the lid and let it 'set.' Times will vary with setting. Last night it was 15 minutes or so and in 2 hours I could upturn the pan. Refrigerate and reheat gently; I use the microwave for individual servings.
• I used the high end of the cook time and will depend on your corn meal, heat of stove, etc -- I have seen many recipes making this pudding appear scary; stand at stove and never stop whisking the entire time. Fiddley sticks!
