So this is not pudding in the strictest sense of the word. It is a dessert of sorts though, I guess.
The saltines mixed with butter do give a sweetish taste. Basically a poor man’s crumb crust. I say poor man because saltines are generally a very inexpensive ingredient.
I don’t think this is something I would enjoy partaking in often. I ate a bit of it. It was fine. But it wasn’t really my cup of tea.
My husband really enjoyed it. Even put some in small containers and has taken it to work the last few days.
I guess if you are looking for something sweet but don’t have a lot of ingredients in the house this could fit the bill.
Maybe . . . if you are desperate. . . .
PANTRY PUDDING
2 Cups Crushed Saltines
½ Cup Butter, Melted
10 Ounces Red Raspberry Preserves
1 ½ Cups Miniature Marshmallows
1 ½ Cups Crushed Pineapple, Drained
Mix saltine crumbs with butter until thoroughly blended. Using a 1 ½ quart casserole, coat lightly with butter and pat 1 ½ cups of crumbs into the bottom. Carefully spread jam over crumbs. Sprinkle marshmallows over jam to cover, then spoon on pineapple. Top with remaining crumb mixture. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
