Heat the pan on top of the stove with a little bacon grease or olive oil in the bottom of the pan, but don't let it get too hot. Add the tomatoes. Salt and pepper to taste. Add the sugar and then mix well. Add the bread crumbs or cracker crumbs. Add a dash or two of cinnamon. Stir well. Bring to a simmer. Stir often and cook down to a pudding consistency. Enjoy.

I have enjoyed reading the recipes. Being somewhat removed from my southern heritage, it's the first time I heard of tomato pudding. Hope to try it.

I've enjoyed seeing the discussion about the recipes. Just the mention of scalloped tomatoes brings back some wonderful memories of some of the family gatherings at my Grandmother and Granddaddy Woodalll's house.

I love seeing these old recipes. I grew up eating tomato pudding and stewed tomatoes. My grandmother made them all the time. The difference I remember is , one is baked in the oven with cinnamon and the other in an iron skillet, depending on the time for cooking. I cook them all the time.
