Pudim de abobora (pumpkin pudding) (brazil)
6 servings
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1½ | cup | Milk |
| ½ | cup | Brown sugar; firmly packed |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Orange peel; freshly grated |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Ground ginger |
| ½ | teaspoon | Ground cinnamon |
| ½ | teaspoon | Salt |

| ;cooked or winter squash, or | ||
| ;canned pureed pumpkin | ||
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F). In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, brown sugar, orange peel, ginger, cinnamon and salt. Stir thoroughly, then add the lightly beaten eggs and the pureed pumpkin. Beat vigorously with a spoon until the mixture is smooth, and pour it into a 1 quart shallow greased baking dish. Place the dish in a large pan in the middle of the oven and pour enough boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake the pudding for about 1¼ hours, or until a knife inserted in the center of the pudding comes out clean. Remove the dish from the water and either cool the pudding to room temperature before serving or refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until thoroughly chilled. If you like, the pudding may be made in six 4 ounce porcelain or glass molds; in that case bake it for about 40 minutes, until firm.
