How To Make A Delicious Farmers Ham Loaf
Combining ground ham and lean ground pork into a ham loaf makes a very tasty treat. One of my late aunts used to make delicious ham loaf and this recipe is pretty close to what she made. She was a delightful aunt who could turn any kind of leftovers into a delicious meal and this is how her ham loaf came to be. This recipe has a sweet and sour sauce that only adds to the delicious flavor of this loaf. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of Splenda brown sugar blend which makes it suitable for diabetics. If you don’t need to watch your sugar intake, you can use 1 cup of brown sugar instead. This is an updated version of an old, old recipe. This recipe is very suitable for diabetics, too.
FARMER’S HAM LOAF
2 lbs ground ham
2 lbs ground lean pork
1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 eggs
1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl combine the ground ham, ground pork, and the bread crumbs. In a small bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the milk. Add the milk, egg mixture to the meat blend. Mix together well and form into a loaf. Place loaf in a pan.
Sauce:
1/2 cup Splenda brown sugar blend
1 tbsp prepared mustard
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
Place all the sauce ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring to blend and melt the Splenda blend. Pour the sauce over the ham loaf. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, basting with the sauce frequently.
Enjoy!
