Time 1h50m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 ¼ cups peeled, seeded, and diced yellow squash
1 ½ cups white sugar
½ cup milk
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 cup self-rising flour

Steps:

  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add squash, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes. Transfer squash to a bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Combine sugar, milk, egg, butter, and lemon extract in a large bowl. Gradually sift flour into milk mixture. Fold mashed squash into milk mixture until batter is smooth. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until air bubbles form on the surface and pudding is golden brown, about 1 hour. Chill in the refrigerator until firm; cut into bars.
