My mother in law made this version of Ham Loaf, and is famous for telling the story of eating it, raisin sauce and all, whhen she was in labor, claiming that she didn't know that was not a good idea!
I have another version posted, using pork and ham, graham cracker crumbs and crushed pineapple....I make it more often . Try the one that sounds the most appealing to you, or try them both to compare. Just don't do it while anticipating a trio to the delivery room.
Mix together 1-1/2 lbs ground ham, 1-1/2 lbs lean ground beef, 2 eggs, 1-1/4 c. milk, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp dry mustard, 3 cups crushed cornflakes. Bake in a loaf pan at 350 for 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Serve with Raisin sauce:
Mix together and simmer 5 minutes: 3/4 c. sugar , 2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp salt, 3 TB flour, 1/4 tsp cloves, 1-1/2 c pineapple juice, 3/4 c. raisins. Makes about 2 cups.
