steamed pudding with lemon sauce (requires 1 egg yolk I think)

Steamed Pudding with Lemon Sauce

Golden raisins or dried cherries may be used instead of raisins. If available, you can use blackstrap molasses, a surprising source of iron, to add rich color and flavor. Coating both the dish and the plastic wrap with cooking spray helps you remove the pudding after it's cooked.

Pudding:
Cooking spray
1/3 cup applesauce
3 tablespoons butter, softened margarine
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (11 1/4 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Dash of salt
1 1/4 cups 2% reduced-fat milk soy milk
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon molasses
1 cup raisins

Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/3 cup 2% reduced-fat milk soy milk
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter margarine
1 large egg yolk
Dash of salt
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350°.
Lightly coat a 2 1/2-quart oven-safe bowl with cooking spray; line with plastic wrap. Lightly coat the surface of wrap with cooking spray. Set aside.

Spoon applesauce onto several layers of paper towels; spread to 1/2-inch thickness. Cover with additional paper towels; let stand 5 minutes. Scrape into a small bowl using a rubber spatula.

Beat 3 tablespoons butter at medium speed with an electric mixer 2 minutes or until fluffy. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add flour mixture, 1 1/4 cups milk, and molasses to the butter, beating until blended. Stir in applesauce and raisins. Spoon mixture into prepared bowl; cover bowl with plastic wrap.

Place bowl in a deep roasting pan. Add hot water to pan until water is one-third way up the sides of bowl. Tightly cover bowl and pan with aluminum foil. Bake at 350° for 2 hours or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove bowl from roasting pan. Carefully invert bowl onto a serving plate; remove bowl. Remove and discard plastic wrap.

To prepare sauce, combine 3/4 cup sugar and next 6 ingredients (through salt) in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk until smooth. Cook, stirring frequently, 4 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat. Stir in rind and vanilla. Let stand at least 5 minutes before serving.

Yield: 10 servings (serving size: 1 slice pudding and 2 1/2 tablespoons sauce)
