This recipe is designed to be made in a medium saucepan for cooking the pudding. For chilling, individual serving bowls or ramekins are ideal and can vary in size, typically holding about 1/2 to 1 cup each.
The butterscotch pudding should be chilled in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set properly. It may take longer if you're using larger containers.
You can substitute the 1% milk with other milk alternatives like whole milk or oat milk, but this may slightly alter the creaminess. For a richer flavor, consider using light brown sugar instead of granulated sugar, but do not change the amount of butter and flour.
The pudding is done when it thickens and starts to bubble, which should take about 5-7 minutes of cooking over medium heat. It should also coat the back of a spoon.
If your pudding has lumps, you can strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to achieve a smoother texture. This step is optional but recommended for the best results.
- Ensure to use low heat when melting the butter and sugar to avoid burning.
- Whisk continuously when adding the flour to prevent lumps from forming.
- Temper the eggs by slowly adding a small amount of hot milk mixture to avoid curdling.
- Use a fine-mesh sieve when pouring the mixture into serving dishes for a silky-smooth texture.
- Cover the surface with plastic wrap when chilling to prevent a skin from forming.
