Here’s a simple and comforting Milk and Cinnamon Pudding recipe—a creamy, mildly sweet dessert with a warm cinnamon flavor.
Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
- 4 cups (1 liter) milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1–2 tsp ground cinnamon (plus extra for topping)
- Optional toppings: whipped cream, cinnamon sticks, or ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, and 1–2 tsp cinnamon.
- Add milk
- Gradually whisk in milk until smooth.
- Cook the pudding
- Place saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir constantly until mixture thickens and starts to bubble (about 8–10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- Serve
- Pour pudding into individual serving dishes.
- Sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top.
- Chill for 30 minutes for a firmer texture, or serve warm.
✅ Tips:
- Stir constantly to prevent lumps and scorching.
- For a richer flavor, substitute 1/2 cup of milk with cream.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
I can also provide a baked version where the pudding forms a lightly caramelized cinnamon crust on top if you want a fancier presentation. Do you want that version?
