Vanilla pudding with berries - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of sweetener instead of sugar?

Yes, you can substitute sugar with alternatives like honey, maple syrup, or a sugar-free sweetener. Adjust the quantity to taste and be mindful that liquid sweeteners may slightly alter the texture.

How long can I store vanilla pudding in the fridge?

The pudding can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For best texture, cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.

Can I make this pudding dairy-free?

Absolutely! Replace the milk with a dairy-free alternative like almond, coconut, or oat milk. Ensure the milk is unsweetened to control the pudding's sweetness.

How can I prevent lumps when adding the dry mixture to the milk?

For a smooth texture, gradually sprinkle the dry ingredients while whisking constantly. Sifting the dry mixture beforehand can also help avoid lumps.

Can I freeze vanilla pudding for later use?

Freezing is not recommended as it can alter the pudding's creamy texture. If you must freeze, thaw it in the fridge and whisk well before serving to improve consistency.

What are some creative serving suggestions for this pudding?

Try layering it with granola for a parfait, serving it in hollowed-out fruit, or topping with whipped cream and crushed nuts for added texture and flavor.

How can I make this pudding low-carb?

Use a low-carb sweetener like erythritol and replace cornstarch with a keto-friendly thickener like xanthan gum or chia seeds for a similar consistency.

Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh for decoration?

Yes, frozen berries work well—just thaw and pat them dry before using to prevent excess moisture from affecting the pudding's texture.
