Prune pudding is what that title says.  If you like prunes this is really good, although it is on the sweet side.  We thought it would be great for a baby food or spread on toast as well as eating a bowl of it.

 

1/2 pound dried prunes

2 cups water

1 cup sugar

2 egg whites

1 1/2 cups boiling water

1/3 cup cornstarch

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/3 teaspoon cinnamon

 

Simmer prunes in 2 cups water until very tender and they can be cut in small pieces.  Add cinnamon, sugar and boiling water to prunes and simmer another 10 minutes.  Add cornstarch mixed with a little water and cook until thick.  Add lemon juice and beaten egg whites.  Good hot or cold served with cream.
