How to Make the Recipe
Now, let’s get to the fun part—making this delicious pudim!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, yogurt, milk, eggs, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the mixture into a greased bundt pan or a pudding mold.
- Prepare a water bath by placing the bundt pan in a larger baking dish filled with hot water. This will help the pudim cook evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the pudim is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture.
- To serve, carefully invert the pudim onto a serving plate and garnish with fresh berries.
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your pudim turns out perfectly every time:
- Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother blend.
- Don’t skip the water bath; it’s essential for achieving that creamy texture.
- If you want to add a twist, consider infusing the milk with a bit of lemon zest for a refreshing flavor.
- For a richer taste, you can substitute half of the milk with coconut milk.
- Letting the pudim chill overnight enhances the flavors and makes it even creamier!
How to Serve
This pudim is best served chilled, and I love to pair it with a handful of fresh berries. The tartness of the berries complements the sweetness of the pudim beautifully. You can also drizzle a bit of chocolate sauce or caramel on top for an extra indulgent treat. It’s a fantastic addition to your weeknight dinner ideas or a special occasion!
Make Ahead and Storage
This pudim is perfect for making ahead of time. You can prepare it a day or two in advance, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. Store it in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 5 days. If you have leftovers (which is rare!), you can enjoy it as a sweet snack or dessert throughout the week.
So, whether you’re planning a cozy family dinner or just want to treat yourself, this Pudim de Iogurte e Leite Condensado is a must-try! It’s easy to make, delicious, and sure to become a favorite in your home. Happy cooking!
