Home made pudding... surprisingly EASY!

Custard/Pudding:
2 c. milk
3/4 c. sugar
3 Tbsp. flour
1 Tbsp. corn starch
1 tsp. vanilla
3 egg yolks

*from Recipehut

In a medium saucepan simmer milk over medium heat. Meanwhile combine dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the milk once warmed and whisk thoroughly. Reduce heat to medium-low and add in the vanilla and egg yolks one at a time. Continue to whisk in order to keep mixture from burning to the bottom of your pan.

Your custard is done when the mixture coats the whisk when it is removed, should be close to a pudding consistency. Remove from heat. Stir every 5 minutes or so as your custard is cooling, this helps reduce any thick film from forming over your custard. Keep refrigerated.

*Tips/Hints/Suggestions:

Eat by itself, use it to fill pastries, make boston cream pie?

Add some coco powder to make a chocolate version or some finely cut bananas to make a banana version.

Enjoy!
