Treacle Pudding or Syrup Pudding
Serves 4

6 oz self-raising flour
3 oz shredded suet or softened butter
2 oz caster sugar
1 egg
6 tbsp milk
2 tbsp treacle or golden syrup

Grease a 2 pint pudding basin if making a steamed pudding, or a
deep pie dish if baking the pudding.

Mix together the flour, suet or butter and sugar.

Make a well in the centre and add the egg and enough milk to give
a soft dropping consistency.

Spoon the treacle or golden syrup into the bottom of the prepared
dish then pour in the pudding mixture.

If steaming the pudding, cover with pleated greaseproof paper or
foil and secure with string.  Steam for 1 1/2 - 2 hours.

If baking, cook, uncovered, 350 0F for about 1 hour, until well
risen. Serve hot with custard.
