  • ½ pound prunes
  • Salt
  • 2 oz sugar
  • 1½ oz butter or margarine
  • ½ a stick of cinnamon
  • 1 oz cooking fat
  • ¼ pound plain flour
  • 1 oz icing sugar

  • How To Cook:
    1. Soak the prunes overnight.

    2. Stew them with the sugar and cinnamon until very tender; towards the end of the cooking time remove the lid and allow almost all the liquid to evaporate.

    3. Sieve the prunes and return them to the pan.

    4. Blend 2 teaspoons flour with 1 tablespoon cold water, add to the mixture, and boil for 2 minutes.

    5. Make some shortcrust pastry with the flour, salt, fats and enough water to give fairly stiff dough.

    6. Roll out, line a pie plate or tin, prick and fill with baking beans.

    7. Bake for ¼ hour in a moderately hot oven (425°F); remove beans, fill with prune mixture and bake for another 10 minutes.

    8. When cold, dust with icing sugar.
