Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 grams Cornstarch
- 120 grams Dry milk powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla bean powder
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, cornstarch, dry milk powder, salt, and vanilla bean powder.
Whisk the ingredients until they are evenly distributed and free of lumps. You can also sift them together for a finer mix.
Store the pudding mix in an airtight container or a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Keep in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
When ready to make pudding, measure 120 grams (about 1/2 cup) of the dry mix into a medium saucepan.
Add 480 ml (2 cups) of milk to the saucepan and whisk to dissolve the mix into the milk.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. This should take about 7-10 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the pudding into serving dishes or bowls. Allow it to cool slightly before serving warm, or chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours for a cold pudding.
Enjoy your homemade pudding as-is or topped with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of caramel sauce!
