Pudim

Indulge in the creamy sweetness of Pudim, a Brazilian flan made with rich condensed milk and a hint of vanilla. This delightful dessert is perfect for family gatherings or a cozy weeknight treat.

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups milk
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

2. 2

   In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it turns golden brown, stirring constantly to make a caramel. Quickly pour the caramel into a round mold, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.

3. 3

   In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and well combined.

4. 4

   Pour the mixture into the prepared caramel-coated mold.

5. 5

   Place the mold in a larger baking dish and fill the larger dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the mold, creating a water bath.

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7. 7

   Let the pudim cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

8. 8

   To serve, run a knife around the edges of the mold and invert it onto a plate. Enjoy your delicious pudim!
