Steamed Bread Pudding

1 1/2 pounds of white bread crumbs. 3/4 pound of sugar. 1/4 pound of butter. 1 quart of milk. 4 whole eggs and 8 yolks. 1 teaspoonful of baking powder. Lemon rind or extract.

Mix the bread crumbs and sugar together. Put the butter in the milk and boil them. Pour the boiling milk and butter over the bread and let stand awhile to steep. Beat the eggs and yolks together and mix them in; the flavoring, baking powder, then beat all together 2 or 3 minutes. Steam an hour or little longer in two buttered moulds. Serve with hard sauce, meringue sauce, butter sauce or maple syrup. Better write it a finer name on the bill-of-fare.
