Caramel Pudding Recipe

§      Firstly, Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

§     Then In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Once the sugar dissolves, stop stirring and let the mixture boil until it turns a deep amber colour. This will take about 8-10 minutes.

§      Then remove the saucepan from heat and immediately pour the caramel into a 9-inch baking dish, tilting the dish to coat the bottom evenly. Be careful as the caramel will be very hot.

§     Take a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 2 cups of whole milk and 1 tsp of vanilla extract until well combined.

§      Pour the milk mixture over the caramel in the baking dish.

§     Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan and pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish.

§      Bake the pudding for 50-60 minutes, or until the custard is set. You can check if the pudding is set by inserting a knife into the centre of the pudding. If it comes out clean, the pudding is done.

§      Remove the baking dish from the roasting pan and let it cool to room temperature. Then, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
