Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 3.4 ounces vanilla instant pudding mix
- 1.5 cups cold milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.5 cup whipped cream
- 0.25 cup crushed graham crackers or ginger snaps (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, vanilla instant pudding mix, and cold milk.
Using a whisk or electric mixer, beat the mixture until it is smooth and begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
Add granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground ginger to the pudding mixture. Stir until the spices are evenly distributed.
Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully incorporated to make the pudding extra light and creamy.
Divide the pudding evenly into serving dishes or cups.
Optionally, sprinkle crushed graham crackers or ginger snaps on top of each serving for added texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 10–15 minutes to help it set and chill further before serving.
Serve cold and enjoy your quick pumpkin pudding!
