Steamed Oatmeal Date Pudding image

This is from New Settlement Cookbook. Great thing about this steamed pudding recipe is the fiber from the oatmeal and the lack of suet. There's even iron-rich molasses. Heck, it's so healthy, you can eat it for breakfast . Makes a nice change from regular oatmeal. Of course, the sauce will make it less like breakfast. The original recipe uses dates, but you can use other dried fruits. Depending on the fruit you use, it won't be as sweet and will be chunkier, as dates sort of melt away when cooked. To steam, put molds or ramekins onto a steamer insert. Cover the molds with greased aluminum foil. Make sure to replenish the water as it boils away.

This pudding is a great make-ahead breakfast or snack. I like to make a big batch on the weekend and then reheat it throughout the week.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I really enjoyed this pudding. The sweetness of the dates is balanced out by the tartness of the lemon juice.

This pudding is a great way to use up leftover oatmeal. I usually make a big batch of oatmeal on the weekend, and then I use the leftovers to make this pudding during the week.

I added a little bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to my pudding, and it was delicious! I think next time I'll try adding some raisins or walnuts.

I've tried this recipe with different types of dates, and I think Medjool dates work the best. They're nice and soft, and they add a lot of flavor.
