Pineapple white pudding

This is the recipe of an eggless pudding, which is prepared using milk and condensed milk. Here the base layer is prepared by mixing butter, pineapple preserve and biscuits. I had used homemade pineapple preserve for this pudding. Those who do not have pineapple preserve may substitute it with pineapple jam. If you pack the base layer tightly, the biscuits won’t float on the top when the custard is poured. I love to see few biscuit floating on the top, so I had not packed the base layer tightly.

There is a little bit of work in this pudding as we have to prepare the custard and also need to double boil the chinagrass at the same time. Make sure that the custard is not boiled. You have to only heat it. Then add chinagrass to the custard.

If you do this a couple of times, you will enjoy this cooking and it will get easier for you. This pudding recipe will be an excellent choice for you to treat your guests with happy tummy.

Pineapple Bread Pudding

Pineapple bread pudding

Pineapple bread pudding is a dessert which is mainly made of bread slices, pineapple jam and milk. In this pudding, bread slices are simply soaked in the milk with other ingredients and is then steamed or baked.

This is a very simple recipe of pudding. We no need to add any gelatin or agar agar to this pudding. Here, we are steaming the pudding using a steamer. You can also bake the same.

Be careful while preparing caramel for this pudding. You have to stir the sugar continuously in low flame. Or else, the sugar may get burnt and the caramel will become bitter in taste.

I had used homemade pineapple jam in this recipe. I will be uploading the recipe of pineapple jam in my site soon. So, if you do not have homemade jam, you can go for readymade jam which is available in our markets.

The speciality of this pudding is, you can serve it either hot or the remaining can be refrigerated and serve cold. You can store the pudding for 3 to 4 days in refrigerator.
